Best Answer

The use of psychology in coaching is normally referred to in the context of the coach's understanding of how psychology may be applied in coaching. This may refer to different approaches to coaching, for example humanistic, Gestalt or cogntive behavioural. Or it may be about the psychology behind the way people learn, or change their behaviour. A psychologically minded coach will have a psychological framework for the work that they do that is based on some evidence.
