Dr. Pattakos offers one-on-one, private mentoring/coaching for individuals in a wide variety of work/life situations who are searching for deeper personal meaning. His mentoring/coaching services, which can be designed to meet special needs, include the following options:

Option 1: Includes a 4-hour intensive mentoring/coaching, "workshop" session with Dr. Pattakos to review the 7 Core Principles and their applicability to your particular life and/or work situation, with a focus on developing a personalized "action plan." Clients have included individuals from leading corporations, government, nonprofit entities, the worlds of sports and entertainment, political leaders, and retirees (all names of individual clients are kept confidential.). These in-person sessions can take place at your location or in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA.

Option 2: Includes a 10-hour mentoring/coaching program spread over a 2 or 3 day period, normally a week-end, with Dr. Pattakos. The program is held in downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. (The best travel route is to fly to Albuquerque and then drive--approximately 55 miles--to Santa Fe; shuttle service and other transportation options from Albuquerque are available). Dr. Pattakos explores with you the 7 Core Principles and their applicability to your particular life and/or work situation during the 10 hour program. The exact timing of the sessions is dependant on the client’s needs, as well as Dr. Pattakos’ availability. Besides an in-depth examination of the Core Principles and their practical application to your unique situation(s), the program focuses on developing a personalized "action plan."

During your stay, you will also have a chance to experience the City of Santa Fe, known internationally as "The City Different," with its charming Spanish-Colonial and Native American historical buildings, marvelous museums, numerous art galleries, and creative cuisine. Nourish your spirit and soul surrounded by our fresh air, magnificent mountains, and "big sky." Our Center for Meaning staff would be happy to assist you with advice on hotel accommodations, restaurants, and "extracurricular" activities during your stay. Please note that your travel and hotel/meal expenses are not included in Dr. Pattakos’ mentoring/coaching fee.

Option 3: If desired, a mentoring/coaching follow-up program, conducted by telephone, can be established to ensure that the client expands the knowledge and application of the 7 Core Principles. These telephone sessions not only reinforce the key learning and other deliverables (e.g., personalized action plan) from Options 1 and 2 but also ensure that client internalizes the Core Principles and overcomes the tendency to be a prisoner of their thoughts! Depending on the needs of the client and Dr. Pattakos’ availability, these coaching sessions are usually held for 30-60 minutes, once a week for a period of 7 weeks.
