BALM coaches

---

Our coaches consist of individuals across a range of NHS professions.

As part of the BA intervention, BALM coaches work together with participants to deliver a collaborative intervention plan based on BA, using the self-help booklet as a guide. 

Coaches receive regular supervision from a clinical member of the BALM study team.

As an optional element, interviews will also be conducted with all coaches who complete the intervention training and provide their consent.

Our coaches receive full training on the intervention, delivered by clinical members of the team experienced in the delivery and training of BA and involved in the intervention development.
