Mentoring
Mentoring is neither therapy nor coaching, though it can include elements of coaching where appropriate and may feel therapeutic.
No man is an island, entire of itself”
John Donne
I offer a space where you can reflect on where you are at, in your life or in your work. You may simply want to hear yourself think out loud, witnessed by a good listener. My stance is one of benevolent neutrality and encouragement, with no specific agenda for you other than your empowerment and the nurturing of your potential. I am a good sounding-board and can offer emotional support where needed.
Our mentoring relationship may be long-term or short-term. Some of my clients opt for mentoring as an ongoing reflective conversation after they have finished therapy and/or coaching sessions. Others are professional therapists discussing their work and attending to their self-care.
As part of your growth and development process through mentoring, you may occasionally choose to receive Reiki or have an EFT session, to resolve a particular issue that has presented itself or rest and restore in a more receptive mode. My approach is person-centred and holistic. We regularly review and evaluate where we are. Mentoring is flexible and designed primarily to encourage insight and understanding, and thus to empower you.
My special interest is spiritual development: Life is a journey.
If you are interested in mentoring, please get in touch.
Mentoring for Complementary Therapists
Supervision is mandatory in some helping professions. Whilst it is not mandatory for most complementary therapists, why is it a good idea for you to seek and actively engage in mentoring?
Mentoring offers an outside perspective based on deep listening and empathy. Together we celebrate what works as well as reflect on and learn from mistakes. We take your well-being into consideration and factor in your own needs for self-care or development. I am transparent about my own experience and am happy to share what I have learnt along the way.
I can offer professional know-how where appropriate and emotional support where required.
