1:1 Mentoring

Being a young person today is tough! With so many physical and emotional changes, school pressures, changing friendships and social media to name a few, this makes for a challenging time. This is the time in our lives when we are getting to know who we are, what we stand for and how we show up in the world. 1 on 1 mentoring provides a safe space for young people to express their feelings, share what is going on for them with someone who can listen non judgementally, guide, motivate and support them as they navigate these difficult years and help them to tap into themselves. We all have what we need within us, it’s just a matter of knowing how to access it.

Your young person may benefit from mentoring if they:

  • are struggling at school

  • feel stressed and overwhelmed

  • worry a lot

  • feel anxious

  • lack self esteem

  • lack self confidence

  • feels like they doesn’t fit in

  • won’t communicate with parents/parent figure

Mentors can be a positive role model in the young persons life. They provide important reinforcement and guidance that they may dismiss or reject from parents. This is a typical part of adolescent growth as they make a distinction between themselves and their parents. A mentor ensures that the young person continues to get direction and wisdom from an adult with similar values. While parental guidance remains critical, an adult mentor in your young persons life supports and is an additional fundamental step to effective parenting.

A mentor isn't:

  • a therapist

  • a coach

  • a psychologist

  • a counsellor

  • a friend

  • a magic cure

The role of a mentor is to guide and help people but is up to each individual to take this guidance and support and apply this to their own lives through a commitment to themselves, goal setting and action taking. I am currently offering 1:1 mentoring online in blocks of 6, taking place either weekly or fortnightly. Get in touch below to discuss further details including availability and pricing.
