Abstract
Integrative Health and Wellness Coaching (IHWC) is a holistic, strengthbased approach that leverages positive psychology, motivational interviewing, and goalsetting to facilitate health behavior change. Despite its growing application in various populations, there is a significant research gap in its use among individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This gap is critical, as individuals with IDD often experience poorer health outcomes due to structural barriers, lack of tailored health services, and limited access to trained healthcare providers.
