Françoise Borel-Clayeux

I am certified by two reference organisations that train supervisors to the international ESQA standard (European Supervision Quality Award), one in Paris and the other in London. Each of these organisations has enabled me to build my coaching on a solid reference base, both in terms of the quality and expertise of the trainers who have accompanied me and in terms of their professional posture and choices. 

Attentive to the evolution of my profession, I am a member of the professional association PSF (Professional Supervisors Federation), official partner for France of the reference network ANSE (Association for National Supervision in Europe). 

My practice is within the framework of the professional ethics of supervision as required and protected by these two institutions. 

Taking a step back on one's posture, one's role, one's impact, one's uniqueness and one's professional development, but also on points of myopia or "blind spots", on one's professional ethics and on the management of ethical dilemmas, the games of the systems in which a practitioner and his client interact: all these axes are worked on in ad hoc supervision or in regular supervision in a space of security and innovation, favourable to the development of the person. 

Supervision has always been an obvious choice for me as a consultant, manager, coach, therapist and mediator. 

The assets that the demanding and benevolent supervisors with whom I have worked and still work have brought to me and continue to bring to my career and practice are numerous and structuring. Thus, I wish, with them, to continue to transmit and share the passion for excellence, ethical and benevolent accompaniment, respectful of oneself and one's clients. I also wish to enable the development of supervision "outside the walls" (!),
beyond its historical fields and sectors of predilection.

Supervision is a space rare in temporality and interactional quality.
An opportunity to be shared!

Whether it is to grow in relevance in one's practice, to take care of oneself, to take care of one's clients, to shed light on complex accompaniments, supervision is in my opinion a keystone of the coaching profession, a privileged space for the construction of the identity of the coaching practitioner.

Do not hesitate to make an appointment with me for :

• a session ad ad hoc (on an urgent, one-off problem or need for clarification): whether it is a sudden problem, or a separate, but personal and important one, whether its nature is ethical, technical, personal, systemic, a need for distance and confidentiality, etc. 
• a accompaniment regular (the frequency of which we define together) according to your specificity and your needs, over a period of time long enough to do structural work together

Come and experience a experience concrete rewarding coaching, sophrotherapy or sophrology, mediation or supervision.

As a member of theEuropean Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC ), I am committed to sharing and respecting the international ethical standards of coaching, with the utmost respect for the individual and his or her autonomy.

Coaching is a guidance on the processes to help the coachee find solutions to his or her solutions adapted to their problems in a given context. 

It is built in interaction. respecting the client's request, his needs, the specific context of the support, and constant attention to the development of his autonomy. 

The coach's role is to facilitate and enlighten the processes that allow the client to evolve and build adapted solutions by taking into account all the resources that he or she has, consciously or unconsciously, and which he or she has acquired in a dynamic and concrete way. resources The coach facilitates the processes that allow the client to evolve and build adapted solutions, taking into account all the resources that he consciously or unconsciously has at his disposal, and which he acquires in a dynamic and concrete way. 

Unlike the consultant and other third parties, the coach's expertise is not in the client's content and profession (if he is from or familiar with the sector of intervention, he refrains from any posture of advice precisely). His general culture and his theoretical and practical knowledge of management and organisations favour an attentive and precise listening to the context of intervention, while keeping him alert to the specificity of each situation and each individual perspective. 

The expertise of the coach is interactional, systemic, processual. He generates a dynamic of change through the contract, the framework, the colour of the coaching he proposes. This is his main added value and signature.

Do not hesitate to write to me to organise a more enlightening and concrete first interaction. 

• Creation of a contractual alliance with the client (a legible and reassuring framework) 
• Clarification of the client's request and objective 
• Co-construction of the path to the goal, stages, reflective pauses and relevant rhythms 
• Co-decision on the achievement of the objective, assessment of progress and achievements
• At the end of the coaching, reflective time on the interaction during the coaching, and on the future steps in autonomy to preserve and amplify the achievements, virtuous circles, and changes reached, set in motion during the coaching. 
• Depending on the type of coaching, a reminder and closing session of the coaching, after a probationary period, implementation of the solutions developed. 

Sophrology provides a set of relaxation techniques, breathing and body exercises that help to relax, harmonise tensions, concentrate and visualise. 

Originally stemming from the research of Dr Alfonso Caycedo (a pioneering neuropsychiatrist who proposed a holistic mind-body approach using hypnosis, yoga and Zen more than half a century ago).
In its philosophy, sophrology is related to, and harmonizes with, systemic brief therapy approaches, existential therapy, and therapeutic approaches using the reassessment , the full consciousness. 

It helps to improve one's general well-being, to regulate a good self-respect, by a better articulation between the intellect, the emotion and the body. 

Often favoured as an approach to stress management, sleep and recovery, it is also very powerful in mental preparation, concentration, learning and creativity .

Through simple techniques learned in a session with the sophrologist, the client acquires new habits and reflexes, and a better awareness of their needs. Most of what is learned in sophrology is lasting and can be easily reused in daily life in complete autonomy. 

Breathing, breathing, tension-relaxation techniques, relaxation, concentration and visualisation are key elements in learning sophrology. 

The techniques known as relaxation dynamic specific techniques allow a better awareness of the body schema, and a healthier lifestyle that is more attentive to oneself; they constitute a solid preventive approach to somatization and its deleterious effects. 

From an early age and on a regular basis, his techniques are an easy path to better interaction with others,

to a better harmony with oneself, and to a better success at school, university, professional and sports competition. 

Sophrotherapy integrates the techniques and contributions of psychoanalysis, psychotherapy and hypnosis into sophrology. 

The sophrotherapist is trained in psychopathology, analytical sophrology and hypnosis. He accompanies people who wish to work more deeply on themselves, who need to free themselves from blockages or traumas linked to their life history, in order to promote greater self-knowledge and inner harmony.
