Supervision of Coaching with Jen Smith, Curious Mentor

Supervision of Coaching – with a neuroinclusive stance

As a coach, supervision isn’t a luxury – it’s a fundamental practice that supports ethical, reflective, sustainable work. Coaching can be complex, emotionally demanding and isolating. Supervision gives you a structured space to notice what’s going on in, around and under the work, so you can keep practising with confidence, clarity and care.

Good supervision isn’t performance management or judgement. It’s a confidential, curious, structured conversation that strengthens your practice and protects your professional integrity.

Supervision is different to coaching and mentoring

Coaching helps you grow by asking the questions you need to explore. Mentoring brings in the wisdom of experience and shared context.

Supervision honours the work you already do; explores ethical complexity, emotional responses, tensions and systems; and helps you make sense of your practice with grounded, compassionate reflection. Whether that’s in a group or on a 1:1 basis.

Supervision of Coaching with The Curious MentorDownload

With over 16 years running her own business and deep experience with coaches, mentors and leaders across more than 200 businesses, Jen draws on structure, curiosity and compassionate challenge to help you think about the work, not just in it.

Her supervisory approach is system-eclectic and incorporates her own studies and research into providing supervision for neurodivergent coaches – and coaches working with neurodivergent individuals.
