A Grant International Coaching Psychology Review 2007
Coaching focuses both on facilitating goal attainment and enhancing well-being. Yet there has been little work
on developing models that integrate mental health/illness issues with goal striving. This is important because

Within the context of an expanding market for coaching in all its forms organisations are asking the questions ‘Does coaching work?’ They seek evidence of a return on investment.
