guarding minds
and relationships
Worklife
MindGuard Coaching supports key personnel and teams in maintaining their balance even amidst heavy workload. it strategically combines performance and mindset coaching, systemic supervision, brief psychotherapy, and emotional skills development, according to need.
You gain effective support to navigate demanding periods and receive help in a timely manner. You learn to release stress and the emotional burden left by challenging situations from the body and mind before they cause problems. You sustainably strengthen your resilience.
You deepen your expertise in successfully supporting and leading people amidst workload, as well as calmly handling challenging interaction situations.
You find ways to cultivate the interaction culture of your team. It has such an astonishingly large impact on well-being at work, employee commitment, resilience, and productivity, that workplaces can only truly afford to have a good culture. We have over 15 years of experience in how to get teams back on track, even when they’ve sidetracked under stress and conflicts.
“I’ve worked with people like Mari for the past 15 years in helping businesses grow. After just 30 minutes with Mari I was blown away. She has such a wide area of expertise that she is able to help individuals and companies faster than anybody else… I’ve worked with therapists, business coaches, life coaches, performance coaches, impact coaches, you name it. And I am yet to meet somebody who actually understands how to impact and empower people better than Mari.”
– Business Consultant, Silicon Valley
”Mari is a unique combination of warm human insight, straightforward capacity to evoke insights, and understanding of demanding expert work. She has served our company for years with results – both empowering our key personnel and delivering substantial cost savings.” – HR Director, Finlan
SUPERVISORY TRAINING PROGRAMS
EASEL Instructor and Leader training programs and the MindGuard Coaching toolkit – coaching for professionals in demanding interpersonal roles, coaches, supervisors, managers, and HR professionals.
EASEL® supports all work involving human interaction. You will strengthen your resources and deepen the emotional and interpersonal skills that support your work. You can make your work more impactful while simultaneously taking care of your own well-being.
You will gain a solid, multidisciplinary theoretical foundation that you can reflect against your previous learning, experiences, and work. You will expand your toolkit to utilize in your own practice. You will deepen your learning through experiential workshops. You will integrate what you learn into your own working theory and build your own, more effective way of working without depleting your own resources.
We promise that in a year, your work will feel easier. You will go to work feeling more at ease, see situations more clearly, and know how to act purposefully even in challenging situations. You will likely take something away for your personal life as well.
Private life
We all occasionally search for balance, and even the best relationships sometimes run into difficulties. And if there are children in the family, they will always react in some way. Life surprises us, and challenges like expat life, blended family dynamics, an adult ADHD diagnosis, and so on, bring their own hurdles.
We offer brief psychotherapy (Solution-Focused/Cognitive Analytic Therapy), Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFCT), Solution-Focused/Systemic Family Therapy, as well as EASEL® emotional skills coaching and parent guidance.
You do not need a referral and can book evening appointments. We can meet via remote consultation or you can visit us in the peace of the countryside in Vihti.
Timely, effective help will stabilize the situation and speed up your return to balance. Your thoughts will clarify and you will feel lighter already after the first session. Often, three meetings are enough to find the first steps towards positive change. We will then consider the continuation together. Tell us how we can help!
“Mari has the heart, the skills, and the tools to create positive change – regardless of a person’s age, profession, gender, or cultural background – and even in the most difficult situations.”
“A huge thank you again for our session last week. It was incredibly helpful, and I’ve been feeling better than I have in a long time.”
