Why DICA Certification Matters Now More Than Ever?
Accelerate Positive Transformation In Healthcare
After experiencing the transformative impact of a Coach Approach in her own practice—from improved clinical outcomes and confidence to burnout prevention and new e-health service delivery—Hélène knew she couldn't keep this methodology to herself. She saw how it aligned with foundational competencies across helping professions, and how it could support a shift from curative to preventative care by helping clients build self-management skills—a critical need in healthcare globally.
Believing healthcare professionals don't need full coaching accreditation to use these tools effectively, Hélène created the Dive Into a Coach Approach® (DICA) certification: a micro-credentialing program recognized by global organizations and accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) for Continuing Coach Education (CCE) hours.
For those interested in formal ICF credentialing, DICA offers Level 4 – ACC Readiness, a structured path with mentorship and performance evaluation support. Today, professionals and students across disciplines—OTs, PTs, chiropractors, nurses, and more—apply this methodology in settings from pediatrics to acute care, and clinical practice to leadership.

How It Works
Our proprietary Dive Into a Coach Approach™ (DICA) curriculum is designed to help uplevel healthcare professional's competencies and skills to improve patient outcomes and support healthcare organizations recruitment and retention efforts.
Our training methodology focuses on three areas in order to achieve groundbreaking results: Adult Learning Principles, Evidence-based research and Core Competencies.
Pillar One
Adult Learning Principles
We use an Instructor-Led, Participant-Centered approach in the design and delivery of our training making the learning engaging, interactive and FUN in order to make the information "stick". Our actionable content is designed for practitioners to put their new learned skills and tools into practice the next day to start making an immediate impact.
Pillar Two
Evidence-based & Theory
We rely on evidence research in the development and ongoing updates of our content utilizing our Literature Review Guide that prioritizes systematic reviews. In addition, DICA is founded and draws upon areas that includes motivational interviewing, transformative learning theory, self-determination theory, neuroscience, mindfulness, transtheoretical models of change, and cognitive behavioral principles.
Pillar Three
Core Competencies
DICA was created utilizing the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Core Competencies, highlighting competencies that are foundational for all helping professions—communication. Our methodology develops competencies for effective patient-clinician communication to engage and motivate patients.
