Individual guidance · online · in English or French
One-to-one mindfulness guidance
Personal guidance with a senior MBSR teacher, at your own pace and on your own schedule. For people who prefer not to learn in a group, who want to go deeper than a course allows, or who are preparing to teach.
Who it is for
If your schedule is demanding. For leaders, executives, entrepreneurs and professionals whose agenda changes from week to week, or who travel often: the program fits around your commitments, not the other way round. Sessions are arranged at the times that suit you, and the approach is entirely personalised to your situation, your pace and what you want to work on.
If a group is not right for you now. Some people prefer the privacy and focus of individual sessions, or live in time zones that make group sessions difficult.
If you want to go further. You have used apps or taken a course and have questions they do not answer; you want to build a steady daily practice, prepare for a retreat, or integrate what happened during one.
If you are training to teach. Mentoring with an experienced teacher and supervisor supports your development as a mindfulness teacher.

Regular sessions
Each session begins with a short practice, followed by dialogue and guidance tailored to you, with practice between sessions.
Good to know
Not psychotherapy. Individual mindfulness guidance is not a form of psychotherapy or medical treatment, and does not replace them. If you are currently in care, we can talk about how the two can sit together.
Commitment to practice. Most of the benefit comes from what you do between sessions: a regular practice, even short, is part of the work.
Cancellations. Sessions can be rescheduled up to 48 hours in advance. Sessions cancelled later, or missed, are due.

Questions people ask
Is individual MBSR the same as the group program?
It follows the same curriculum, practices and progression. What changes is the pace and the attention given entirely to you; the group dimension of shared experience is replaced by a personal dialogue.
In which language are the sessions?
In English or in French, as you prefer.
How do sessions take place?
Online, by video on Zoom, at times we arrange together. All you need is a quiet space and a stable internet connection.
Can I start with a single session?
Practice guidance and teacher mentoring sessions can be booked individually; packages of 4 or 8 sessions offer a better rate and give the practice time to settle.
