Positive Psychology Intervention Supporting Health and Wellness Coach Well-being during COVID-19: Feasibility and Preliminary Effectiveness

This pre-post exploratory feasibility study examined a 6-week, multifaceted, self-guided positive psychology intervention to support the well-being of health and wellness coaches during the COVID-19 pandemic. Nearly 40% of 634 participants completed the postintervention survey, using the interventions on 60% of possible days, a majority finding the intervention helpful or very helpful. Regressions demonstrated improvements post-intervention in anxiety, depression, and life satisfaction for participants whose initial scores were not optimal. The intervention appears well-received, feasible, and supportive of coach well-being. Future research might find this cost-effective, flexible, and convenient intervention useful in supporting well-being more broadly, including during future health crises.
