I was working in Lancashire last week, running the NCFE accredited Fusion Therapeutic Coaching Diploma for a delightful, intelligent and enthusiastic group; many of whom will become part of the Fusion Northern Hub and bring the model to the young people and families of the beautiful Ribble Valley.

The previous week, I was in Hampshire; another lovely part of the country, meeting representatives of a mental health agency who are interested in using Fusion for an outreach project to help people back into work.

I believe more and more Fusion Hubs will form as word spreads about an innovative and accredited training programme which offers proven skills in a model fully test bedded in the therapeutic coaching charity I founded in 2009, Reclaim Life.

An offer you can’t refuse

Because I want Fusion to spread to the places where it can really help, I am now prepared to make you an offer you will find hard to refuse.

If you would like the accredited Fusion Diploma to come to your area and can bring together a training group of seven or more, you can claim one place, worth £795, completely free of charge.

You see, I want Fusion to get out there, in a safe and ethical way, where it can really begin to make a difference in the community, helping prevent the students of today becoming the mental health patients of tomorrow and helping take the strain from our failing mental health system.

If you are interested in training and becoming part of the growing Fusion Coaching community, register your interest here.

What is the Fusion Model?

The Fusion Model combines the best of counselling and coaching into something really new and effective; Therapeutic Life Coaching.

Using the coaching wheel of life, clients are invited to take a ‘psychological snapshot’ of the here and now, consider a preferred future and create SMART goals to help them begin to move forward with their lives.

Fusion makes the important link between psychological needs and the powerful emotional drivers whose purpose it is to push us towards getting those needs met.

Clients are encouraged to use the SAFE SPACE ‘recipe’ for happiness, based on the research of renowned psychologist Abraham Maslow, to identify their current position on the ‘continuum of wellbeing’.

The STOP System

A model is a theory, a philosophy or an understanding about how things work.

But it’s no good having a model without a system which fills the theory-application gap and allows you to put the model into practice.

Fusion coaches teach the mindfulness-based ‘STOP System’; a unique psychological tool for training the brain to interrupt its instinctive urge to react mindlessly and learn to respond instead, with emotional intelligence.

Knowledge is power

Working with a Fusion coach improves mind management skills plus a deeper understanding about how our minds function. This makes our clients better equipped to deal with the inevitable ups and downs of living in an increasingly stressful world and helps develop the emotional resilience that underpins happiness and wellbeing.
