MENTORING

The Mountain Medicine Mentoring offerings are opportunities for personalised guidance, care, and support for people navigating challenges, crises or significant life changes. With these individualised trajectories, we offer interventions for recovery, reset and re-empowerment; integrative wilderness therapy processes designed to ‘metabolise’ current  circumstances, and work with their teachings to find greater truth, meaning and connection over time. Each mentoring journey is designed using the MM Method—an indigenous-inspired map for human development that’s nature-based, attachment-informed and trauma-sensitive. In our mentoring journeys, we journey through the outer and inner landscape together, working with the four directions of the native american medicine wheel to restore the natural conditions and context for human development. Working with this integrative, holistic perspective of humanity, we explore how our wellbeing emerges from being in right relationship; with ourselves, our community, the world at large, and the mystery of life itself.


About


PEOPLE

Who is this for:

Mountain Medicine Mentoring is intended for people who are:

  • Facing major life transitions or challenges, and seek a holistic therapeutic way of navigating their way through

  • Experiencing mental health challenges including burnout, stress, anxiety, depressive states, or substance use issues.

  • Feeling disconnected from purpose or meaning, and seeking a deeper orientation to life.

  • Working through relational complexity —patterns of conflict, attachment challenges, or constellation dynamics.

  • Drawn to a nature-based and holistic approach that complements or extends traditional therapeutic support.

PRINCIPLES

Our mentoring work follows the MM Method, a process inspired by the Medicine Wheel. It reflects four primary attachments that shape human health and wellbeing: to creation, to ourselves, to others, and to the world at large Each direction represents both a core need and a therapeutic step in the journey of healing.

  • East – Spirit. Cultivating a personal relationship with creation, discovering our unique place in the world, and shaping our own vision for change, to connect to the great mystery.

  • South – Self. Challenging misalignments in our personal histories that prevent us from following our authenticity, addressing disruptive patterns and crafting nurturing, constructive and life-giving routines”

  • West – System. Confronting relational dynamics and family patterns that surround us, doing the work necessary to create balance and harmony in our lives, building supportive networks & communities.

  • North – Service. Creating a story of change and transformation, shaping a unique contribution to society based on our own healing journey, sharing our ‘medicine’ with the world around us.

PRACTICES

What’s included in each offering:

Each mentoring trajectory is tailor-made, but is typically built up through a series of complementary practices, including:

  • Person-centred counseling — empathic, authentic therapeutic dialogue, mentoring and guidance.

  • Wilderness therapy practice— outdoor dynamics tailored to elicit process, deepen inquiry and shift perspective

  • Indigenous-inspired ritual & ceremony — Earth bound rite of passage work to anchor change & integration

  • Expedition-style adventure — guided therapeutic immersions in the Scandinavian Wilderness (if applicable).
