Coaching and Mentoring by John Pendal
Kink mentoring and life coaching is now available from BDSM educator and former International Mr Leather, John Pendal - either as video calls to individuals and relationship groups, or workshops to larger numbers. (A list of workshops available can be found here.)
There are many reasons why people get in touch: some are struggling with mental blocks or negative thoughts. Others lack motivation or need help setting goals. Some people want to try a new kink and just need some information - or you may want to discuss issues with body image or self-esteem.
Whatever you'd like to discuss, John offers a friendly, professional, non-judgemental and confidential service. Each session is individually tailored. Everything is done with your consent.
Coaching concentrates on getting you from where you are now and where you'd like to be. It is not a substitute for counselling, mental health care or substance abuse treatment.
Confidentiality
The only electronic information stored are contact details to set up the calls. John will ask if he can take hand-written notes during the calls without using your name. Any email correspondence is deleted after sending. At any stage you can request for your information to be deleted.

TESTIMONIALS
"John is an excellent listener - he will take his time getting to know you and your interests, give you a combination of things to think about, point you to references and resources in the gay/kink world, and provide practical advice about how to start or restart a life in kink." - Anthony
"Thank you for spending your time and sharing your knowledge with us yesterday. I found it very interesting. With almost seven weeks of being isolated inside in my apartment it's nice to get some food for thought, on something other than corona." - Kilina
