1-1 Mentoring & Supervision

1-1 Mentoring & 1-1 Supervision 

In a relationship-based approach, feelings, emotions, and affect are central to fostering a child's development. In this fundamental paradigm shift from traditional behavioral approaches, an individual reflective exchange through 1-1 mentoring or 1-1 supervision is often helpful to become aware of our clients' own (unconscious) feelings as well as emotional intentions and blockages and to be able to respond appropriately to each individual situation. 

1-1 Mentoring/supervision is for you if you.

Building bridges for autistic children The missing piece of the puzzle

"The detailed video analyses helped me like nothing else to find the missing piece of the puzzle and to understand what was really happening - on the emotional level in the child himself, to see how I could respond even more appropriately and use my voice to reach and nurture the child.“ 

Friedel Bauer, educator at an autism facility

Building bridges for autistic children "The way to the goal„

"The DIRFloortime method has confirmed and encouraged me in my approach of picking up the children where they are and accompanying them on their journey through the world (or often into the world). And to put more emphasis on the child's relationship and motivation. What I also take away is the choice of play materials and that you can make "so much" out of "so little". Also, that the path to the goal and the dialogue and interaction in the process is more important than the goal itself. In my work, I wouldn't want to be without Floortime." 

Barbara Cidej, Individual care in kindergarten

Building bridges for autistic children "Individual support„

"The individual attention in 1-1 mentoring from Sibylle really helped me move to the next level in my own floortime practice and break free from my own ingrained patterns and focus on behavior change in my facility." 

Maria Lehnert, curative teacher
