Coaching in the Grey Space

In Coaching in the Grey Space, 1st Edition, author Dr. Lauretta Greer defines the intersection between coaching and therapeutic terrain. This book addresses the practical and ethical challenges that arise when professional coaching boundaries overlap with psychological therapy, offering systematic guidance to improve boundary management and ensure client safeguarding.

The text incorporates major themes in coaching psychology, stress management and prevention, and trauma-informed coaching. It explores how practitioners handle complex client scenarios involving personal development and major life transitions. By examining these overlapping areas, the work demonstrates how coaching within grey space generates both preparatory and preventative effects for client wellbeing.

Spanning 180 pages and featuring nine black and white illustrations, the volume establishes a clear framework for recognizing dynamic boundaries. Dr. Greer brings specialist insight to the material as a trauma-informed Coaching Psychologist holding a BSc in Counselling and Psychology, an MSc in Occupational Psychology, and a DProf in Coaching.
