Mentor Coaching

Mentoring

A mentor coach is an expert who provides wisdom and guidance based on their experience to enhance the coach’s skills. Mentoring includes feedback, advising and at specific moments, coaching. A good mentor is responsible for listening to the mentee’s coaching, assessing their skill level, and creating a collaborative partnership for working together to support the coach’s goal. 

I had the privilege of working with Andrea as my mentor coach for the ICF certification at the Associate Certified Coach (ACC) level. She was so very professional, thorough, and explicit in her mentorship. She is amazingly talented, and a great teacher. I learned as much from her as I have anyone in my entire coach training process, and she made it a gentle but effective experience. I highly recommend her if you need a mentor coach, or any other kind of professional coaching.

When To be mentored?

  • If you are working on becoming, upgrading, or renewing your coaching credential (for an International Coach Federation certification or another coaching body) and need a certain number of mentor sessions to qualify for the process. 
  • If you want to be an even better coach, have personalized attention to and feedback on your specific ways of working, gain insight on your coaching style and heighten your impact. 
  • If you want to learn new approaches or incorporate different perspectives.

I've worked with a few Mentor Coaches over the years and couldn't be more impressed with Andrea. Her expertise in psychology and coaching is a breath of fresh air. She provides feedback in a way that's clear, direct, and supportive of next level development. She has a keen sense for the nuanced strengths and opportunities observed during audio or videotaped session segments and she cares enough to debrief in a way that supports deep learning. I'm grateful to have found her and look forward to our ongoing work.
