VIDEO SESSION ONLYTherapeutic Mentoring is a form of coaching and is an individual one-on-one approach between a provider and a client with the purpose to support a specific goal on the client's treatment plan. For example, the plan might include developing age-appropriate behavior, interpersonal social skills, work interaction skills, problem solving and conflict resolution strategies, or day-to-day living skills. These issues are not uncommon in clients who had absent parents.Sessions are generally structured and strength-based support-type services. The focus is to help the client re-structure protective walls she has built up from childhood that keep her from developing deeper and meaningful friendships and personal relationships, learn skills that may not have been learned due to neglect, abuse, or absence of a parental figure, and to learn or rebuild healthy boundaries, thought processes, self-esteem development, and actions for a more satisfactory life experience. It helps the client identify hindering and impulsive thoughts and behaviors and improve their surrounding environment and relationships to help her meet her personal goals and reach her fullest potential at home, work, and the community.Services include:Supporting, coaching and training youth in age-appropriate behaviors;Strengthening interpersonal communication;Teaching problem-solving and conflict resolution skills;Developing healthy relationships with peers and adults in recreational and social settings; andIncreasing a youth’s integration and participation in their local community.
