As part of the lifelong learning of wellness practitioners we focus on professional training, paying attention to new trends and gaining experience with new techniques. The development of social skills is of the same importance as the personality development of the clients with whom the practitioner meets. The text deals with the areas of development of a professional in this branch. An emphasis has been placed, among others, on coaching as an important technique of encouraging and guiding the client, mastering the skills to work with the Positive Life Scenario as a necessary technique in supporting a client’s taking responsibility in his/her own way, and mastering the technique of Neuro-Linguistic Programming.
