Our Mentors

What you can expect.

• To be challenged. Growth doesn’t happen in your comfort zone. Your mentor will encourage you to stretch your thinking, reflect honestly, and try new approaches.
• A supportive team approach. Mentoring isn’t about sitting back and passively absorbing information – it’s a shared journey. Your mentor is your guide, sounding board, and champion.
• Accountability. You’ll be expected to take ownership of your learning. That includes applying what you discuss, following through, and showing up ready to engage.
• Personalised support. You’ll be asked what you want to improve, what’s currently holding you back, and what kind of support will help you most.
• Insight and expertise. Our mentors have been handpicked and trained to deliver a high-quality mentoring experience. They are experienced, compassionate professionals who believe in your potential.

What we ask of you.

• Be honest. Share openly about your strengths, challenges, and goals. This helps shape mentoring that’s truly relevant to your practice.
• Be proactive. Come to each session with questions, reflections, or cases you’d like to explore.
• Be prepared to grow. This might involve trying new techniques, stepping into unfamiliar situations, or viewing things from a new lens.
• Give and receive feedback. Constructive dialogue is how we all get better – your mentor wants to learn from you too.

Mentoring

Mentoring is about support, growth and connection. It’s having an experienced practitioner walking alongside you, asking powerful questions, sharing insights, and helping you navigate real-world practice. Mentoring encourages reflection, challenges your thinking, and supports your professional and personal development. It’s developmental, relational, and focused on expanding your confidence and impact in oncology rehabilitation.

Mentoring isn’t about being told what to do or being handed all the answers. Instead, it’s about having a safe, structured space to think out loud, check in on professional standards, and feel supported in both your learning and the care you provide to your patients.

It’s a relationship that helps you explore and grow in many ways — from strengthening clinical skills and confidence, to developing your communication, leadership, and career direction.
