Description of Services*
- Solutions will provide coaching/mentoring services to the Mentee. Coaching/mentoring is an alliance between Solutions and the Mentee designed to be a thought-provoking and creative process to assist the Mentee in maximizing personal potentials, identifying needs for positive growth and creating goals as well as strategies, plans, techniques, and methodologies for the Mentee to use to achieve those goals. Mentee acknowledges that mentoring is a comprehensive process that may involve different areas of his, her or their life, including family and other relationships, work, finances, health, education and recreation. The Mentee agrees that deciding how to handle these issues and incorporate mentoring principles into the Mentee’s life is exclusively the Mentee’s responsibility. The Mentee understands that in order to enhance the coaching relationship, the Mentee agrees to communicate timely and honestly, to be open to feedback and assistance, and to create the time and energy to participate fully in the program. The Mentee is responsible for executing the strategies, plans, techniques, and methods discussed with Solutions Parenting Support. Beginning on the effective date of this agreement, Solutions will provide weekly services that will be made available to the Mentee through telephone/conference calls, video conferencing, emailing and texting. The Mentee is responsible for scheduling the weekly coaching/mentoring sessions with their mentor. Additionally, Solutions provides support in between working sessions for Mentees, which includes developing strategic solutions around highly challenging situations. Solutions does not provide therapy or acute crisis support. Parents and guardians, or Mentees older than 18, are solely responsible for providing the support their child needs in crisis through a local individual or family therapist. Mentee is solely responsible for creating and implementing his/her own physical, mental and emotional well-being, decisions, choices, actions and results arising out of or resulting from the mentoring relationship and his/her/their mentoring calls and interactions with Solutions. As such, the Mentee/parent(s)/guardian(s) agrees that the Solutions is not and will not be liable or responsible for any actions or inaction, or for any direct or indirect result of any services provided by Solutions. Mentee/parent(s)/guardian(s) understands mentoring is not therapy and does not substitute for therapy and does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental disorder or medical disease. Mentee/parent(s)/guardian(s)Mentee acknowledges that mentoring does not involve the diagnosis or treatment of mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association and that coaching is not to be used as a substitute for counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care, substance abuse treatment, or other professional advice by legal, medical or other qualified professionals and that it is the Mentee’s exclusive responsibility to seek such independent professional guidance as needed. If Mentee is currently under the care of a mental health professional, it is recommended that the Mentee/parent(s)/guardian(s) promptly inform the mental health care provider of the nature and extent of the mentoring relationship agreed upon by the Mentee and Solutions.
