1:1 mindfulness coaching, mentoring and embodied depth work sessions are available for gifted adults (17+) with Kelly Pryde. Sessions are typically 60 minutes and take place online via zoom. These can be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or as-needed depending on your needs. We determine this together.

Mindfulness-Oriented Coaching & Mentoring

Mindfulness-oriented coaching sessions are for gifted adults who have just (re)discovered their giftedness/neurocomplexity and are ready to learn mindful approaches for supporting their intensity and complexity and developing a deeper relationship with themselves. We explore and get to know the various aspects of your unique areas of giftedness or multi-exceptionalities and tailor contemplative practices to support you in your gifted development. Practices can include, but are not limited to: embodied mindfulness, self-compassion, active imagination, journaling and other forms of creative expression that are informed by both gifted and contemplative psychology.

For gifted adults who already have an understanding of their neurocomplexity profiles and are not in need of coaching support, but would benefit from a co-creative relationship with a mindfulness- and gifted-knowledgeable professional, mindfulness-oriented mentoring is a good option. In mentoring you can expect to explore ideas and receive guidance with the depth and complexity you need for moving in a new life direction, integrating a new process into your personal growth, or branching into a new aspect of your work. Many gifted adults often need support following adverse experiences in non-gifted sensitive mindfulness spaces and mentoring can serve as a helpful reorientation in these situations.  

Embodied Depth Work

Embodied depth work is for gifted and neurocomplex adults who have been engaged in growth and discovery work for some time yet still feel drawn to go deeper into their process. Yet-to-be-accessed parts of the self can feel like "something underground" or a longing still waiting to be realized. These sessions involve tapping into your innate wisdom through dialogue, mindful imagination, listening to the body, metaphor, dreamwork and witnessing your own story. This process can be particularly helpful for moving through transitions and stuck points in one's life as it initiates a transformation where more creative, authentic aspects of yourself can emerge with more life-forward energy. This work is informed by gifted, contemplative and depth (Jungian and post-Jungian) psychologies. You can read more about this work and what gifted adults have said about it here.
