For Professional Workplace Support because each professional has a unique set of challenges... And a more stress-free workplace environment is achievable. With a Mindfulness approach I support carers, healers, coaches and business leaders to reflect on their work and delve into the more confounding areas which seem irresolvable. ——— Reflective Professional Development (RPD) or Professional Supervision provides an opportunity to talk with a fellow professional who can see your issues from an uninvolved perspective. It helps you look more objectively at the way you relate to your work environment and those you work with. ——— (Currently I am only taking RPD clients as my therapy caseload is full.) ——— Developing more insight in: dealing with ethical matters, maintaining clear boundaries, managing stress, setting goals, recognising professional opportunities or handling seemingly irresolvable work issues can relieve a lot of pressure within your role. Additionally, sometimes there are important relationship issues which may cause conflict and could benefit from an outside perspective. RPD helps bring context to these kinds of matters. ——— Working alongside you as a professional partner I strive to create a neutral, unbiased environment where you’re able to gain more understanding about yourself and your role. In this professional setting we’ll explore any behaviours which may be adding to your stress. We’ll aim for the ‘crux’ and get to the ‘nitty gritty’ by helping you see outside yourself and your situation. Ultimately, I support you in dealing with any potential difficulties before they develop into setbacks. ——— Because everything you talk about is confidential, you're able to be completely honest without it affecting your position in the community, or your role and relationships within your work environment. ——— RPD takes place on a monthly basis or meetings can be organised every second week for work situations which require more consistent support. ——— If you’re interested in RPD as an ongoing means of professional development it can be funded through your organisation. ——— My qualifications are a Masters in Health Practice specialising in Advanced Psychotherapy & Clinical Supervision and a Graduate Certificate in Career Development, both through AUT University; and a certification in Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training led by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach and supported by both the Awareness Training Institute and the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California, Berkeley. ——— For more information visit my website https://www.renefreyjenningstherapy.co.nz/supervision-and-workplace
