MY APPROACH
I provide a confidential space for exploring what matters to you.
My approach is tailored to each individual's needs and our work will be agreed by us both.
Therapeutic mentoring offers elements of therapy, coaching and mentoring.
We discuss what you want and agree what is possible. It may be short or medium term work. It could be a one-off session.
What to expect
A confidential, safe space
Non-judgemental and attuned support
Collaborative goal setting
Flexibility in approach
Compassionate challenge
Reality testing
Help to face into difficult issues and dilemmas
Experience of a broad range of psychological and social dynamics and issues
Who can benefit
Anyone seeking a space to explore their experience beyond just “getting through”.
You may have addressed personal issues in the past and feel reasonably robust on a day to day basis. However, this doesn’t preclude you being overwhelmed by a current or anticipated situation., nor wanting to continue your own personal growth.
My work with you could take shape in various different ways. For example:
-as a space to unpick a current and unexpected crisis
-as a continuation of your personal learning journey.
-as space to address your needs at a particular life stage.
-to manage a transition.
- as reflective space to explore the meaning, purpose, and significance of your life and your relationships.
- to build mental and physical resilience and wellbeing.
- to live more realistically with challenging ‘givens’ of life including uncertainty, instability, loss, change, and death.
- to develop your authentic self, living more intentionally with your values. Maybe you want to develop new habits and disciplines?
There are many reasons that you might want a personal, confidential and ethic space to explore what is important to you.
Meeting frequency, length and cost
Meetings can be online or face to face. They will last for one hour (60 mins) and will be monthly or fortnightly by agreement. The session cost is £75
Is this right for you?
Therapeutic mentoring will not be suitable for those requiring immediate support or seeking weekly personal therapy. We will assess your needs during our first session, to ensure that this approach aligns with your goals.
My commitment
As a therapeutic mentor, I will be an anchor for your personal development work.
