Paper: Transition Resilience and wellbeing in the context of COVID-19
Prof Stephen Palmer with Sheila Panchal and Dr Siobhain O’Riordan
This session will explore the potential impact of COVID-19 on individual wellbeing. It will outline a model of transition resilience – INSIGHT – which is a tool that coaches can use when supporting people through transitions. The theoretical basis for the INSIGHT model will be shared, as well as a more pragmatic perspective which applies the model in the context of COVID related transitions. Application as an approach for psychoeducation will also be reviewed.
