Deepal Awal, Ph.D. By Deepal Awal, PhD, Evidence Based Coaching Faculty, Fielding Graduate University One of the quintessential questions I always hear from my students is around the role of emotions in coaching. The question is: But if I explore emotions and past history, isn’t that the domain of therapy rather than coaching?
