The Top Positive Psychology Coaches
/ 08th January 2023A positive psychology coach is a professional who helps individuals to overcome challenges and achieve their goals by teaching them principles and techniques based on the research of positive psychology. positive psychology is the scientific study of the strengths and virtues that enable individuals and communities to thrive. The positive psychology coach uses this research to help clients learn how to identify and develop their unique strengths, set inspiring goals, and overcome obstacles.
As a result, clients are able to achieve greater satisfaction, success, and wellbeing in their personal and professional lives. If you are facing challenges or simply seeking to enhance your life in some way, a positive psychology coach can provide you with the tools and guidance you need to create lasting positive change.
Each positive psychology coach, with their unique style, tries to help the clients and asks them what’s extraordinary about their coaching and what has endorsed their massive success.

Adele Hawkes
I’m Adele, a Positive Psychology Coach who empowers people like you to capitalise on their strengths, build emotional intelligence and create a happy and successful life. Workplace wellbeing is one of my areas of expertise, and I’m also passionate about addressing young people’s self-confidence and resilience.
With 20 years of experience in PR and media agencies, I’ve worked in my fair share of fast-moving, creative and highly-pressured environments. I’ve met plenty of people who achieve great financial and professional success, yet still remain unfulfilled and unhappy. I’ve also seen how some people thrive under pressure and recover from setbacks unscathed, while other just as competent and capable people slip down a slope of severe stress and anxiety.
However, it wasn’t until I started a new PR venture about 10 years ago that I started to really consider why people were affected so differently.

I’m a speaker, educator and coach on thriving workplaces. My key role is to translate the latest research (from fields including Positive Psychology) into relatable strategies for organisations to empower their people and performance to thrive. Having worked for a decade in the financial services industry including leading national sales teams.
I understand what it’s like to be responsible for driving engagement, wellbeing and performance in the workplace. It was during this time that I discovered Positive Psychology when trying to find answers to my leadership questions. In my practice, I have worked with over 1000 people from schools, not-for-profits and organisations across a range of industries both in Australia and overseas. I also teach undergraduate students at the University of Melbourne’s Centre for Wellbeing Science.
Additionally, I am the Chair of the University of Melbourne’s MAPP student and alumni association and an expert content collaborator for Hodie, which teaches students and young people the human skills needed to survive in the workplace. I also advise organisations on their wellbeing initiatives as a subject matter expert including Puka Up’s app Alffie (alongside the University of Melbourne) and ANZ’s coaching capability framework (with Deakin Co.)
Dr. Robert Biswas

He is a leading authority on strengths, culture, courage, and happiness and is known for his pioneering work in the application of positive psychology to coaching.
Robert has authored more than 60 peer-reviewed academic articles and chapters, two of which are “citation classics” (cited more than 1,000 times each). Dr. Biswas-Diener has authored seven books, including The Courage Quotient, the 2007 PROSE Award winner, Happiness, and the New York Times Best Seller, The Upside of Your Dark Side.
Lisa Jones
I am a positive psychology and NLP practitioner and coach. I usually work with professionals who wish to work on personal and/or professional changes and challenges. I use my professional knowledge and creativity to facilitate the coachee in developing a deeper awareness and understanding of their values, strengths and personal identity, and support them to build psychological resources and skills to move positively forward in their chosen pathway.
The coaching techniques are informed by empirical research and practices, underpinned by my ongoing research (Ph.D.) into complexity and psychological wellbeing of aloneness in midlife adults. The Ph.D. research will result in a coaching intervention which will support midlife adults in their life transitions and psychological wellbeing. I am also a part-time Associate Lecturer of positive psychology (MAPP) at BNU supporting students in their positive psychology learning.
