Supervision and Mentoring

 

I offer in-person and online supervision and mentoring for Shiatsu and other complementary practitioners, Shiatsu teachers, and walking artists, to enhance practice through careful and compassionate reflection.

Supervision:

  • To develop an open-hearted way of working

  • To maintain a competent and effective practice

  • To safeguard and support you, members of the public, and your profession

I have relevant experience in setting up and running a Shiatsu Practice, Clinic and School over 35 years. My aim is to listen and support supervisees in their work and self development. I have been a supervisor for 20 years.

Cost: £65 per hour in-person, £55 online.

Mentoring:

Mentoring is a developmental relationship where the mentor tends to be a more experienced individual offering guidance and supporting the growth of a mentee, who is someone with less experience in the shared field. This collaborative process focuses on helping you develop your potential, enhance your skills, and improve your performance. Mentoring can take place over a short or long period of time, and address broader personal and professional development, as well as short-term performance goals.

Shiatsu / complementary therapy / artist mentoring – All of us can have times when we need some extra support. As a student, you may be looking for help with study skills for exams; with time management or other issues involved with doing your practices; relationships with colleagues or teachers; homework issues, and case studies.

As a practitioner, you may appreciate the presence of someone outside your usual environment, who knows what it’s like to set up and work as a self-employed person – from a practical, theoretical and spiritual point of view. These confidential sessions are personally designed to suit your schedule and approach, and to take your wellbeing into account.

Please note that any member of the Shiatsu Society can choose to be a mentee. There is a full pack available from The Shiatsu Society explaining this subject.

All conversations are private and confidential. I adhere to the Codes of Ethics of the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council and the Shiatsu Society (UK)
