MENTOR COACHING
Refine your skills. Deepen your presence. Elevate your impact.
Whether you're pursuing your ICF ACC or PCC credential—or simply committed to becoming the most aligned and masterful version of yourself as a coach—Mentor Coaching is your next step.
You became a coach because you believe in people’s potential.
You care deeply. You’re committed. And you want to do this well.
You’ve completed your coach training.
You’ve started applying your skills in real-life sessions.
You’re on the path to ICF credentialing—or preparing for renewal.
But beneath the excitement, doubts begin to whisper.
You wonder if your coaching is really landing.
You replay sessions in your mind, picking apart what you said—or didn’t say.
You try to apply the ICF competencies, but sometimes they feel abstract or out of reach.
Are you truly coaching, or just asking clever questions?
Are you empowering your clients, or trying too hard to sound like a “good coach”?
You want to grow, but you're not sure how to get meaningful, objective feedback.
You want to feel confident—not just competent.
This is where mentor coaching makes all the difference.
It’s not about fixing you.
It’s about refining your practice, strengthening your presence, and supporting you to coach with more clarity, ease, and integrity.

SOME OF THE RESULTS YOU CAN EXPECT
Why you'd want to invest in Mentor Coaching?
Mentor coaching isn’t just a credentialing requirement—it’s a powerful catalyst for growth, alignment, and confidence.
It’s where your coaching moves from learning the tools to embodying the art.
It’s where you stop second-guessing yourself and start trusting your presence.
Where the Core Competencies stop being checkboxes—and start becoming second nature.
Where you finally hear someone say: “This part right here? This is your genius.”
Mentor coaching gives you the kind of focused, compassionate feedback you wish you had when you first started coaching
—feedback that sees your potential, names your blind spots, and helps you stretch into your next level with integrity.
Elevated Skills
You’ll learn how to bring the ICF Core Competencies to life in an authentic, embodied way—so they flow naturally through your sessions.
Clarity on "Good Coaching"
With real-time examples and feedback, you’ll begin to understand how powerful coaching happens—moment by moment.
Self Trust & Presence
No more feeling like you’re “performing” or trying to remember what to say. You'll learn to trust yourself, your intuition, and the coaching process.
Strength-based Feedback

Style Refinement
Instead of mimicking what you were taught, you’ll find your authentic voice as a coach—and learn to use it with clarity and power.
Deeper Understanding
Whether it's over-questioning, fear of silence, or trying to “get it right,” mentor coaching helps you identify the patterns that dilute your impact—and shift them.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What's usually asked by coaches...
Is Mentor Coaching required for ICF credentialing?
Yes. The ICF requires a minimum of 10 hours of Mentor Coaching for both ACC and PCC credentialing (and for ACC renewal). These 10 hours must be completed over a minimum of 3 months and must be delivered by a coach with the appropriate ICF credential.
What’s the difference between Mentor Coaching and Coaching Supervision?
While both are developmental, Mentor Coaching focuses on your skill development and alignment with ICF Core Competencies, particularly in preparation for credentialing. Coaching Supervision is broader, exploring the whole of your coaching practice—including relational dynamics, ethical questions, emotional impact, and personal growth as a practitioner.
What do I need to bring to a mentor coaching session?
You’ll typically be asked to bring a recorded coaching session for review (with your client’s consent). In group sessions, you may also observe and reflect on others’ coaching. Some sessions may include live coaching demonstrations, reflections, and Q&A around ICF competencies and best practices.
Can I count both group and individual mentor coaching toward my ICF requirements?
Yes. Of the 10 required hours:
7 hours may be done in a group setting (maximum 10 participants)
3 hours must be done one-on-one with your mentor coach
Our program is structured to fulfill both of these requirements.
Who facilitates the mentor coaching sessions?
All mentor coaching is facilitated by experienced, ICF-credentialed coaches (PCC or above) who meet ICF’s requirements for mentor coaching. They bring not only technical expertise, but a warm, insightful, and supportive presence to help you grow.
I’m feeling nervous about receiving feedback. Will it be critical or supportive?
Totally understandable! Mentor Coaching at Evoque is strength-based, kind, and constructive. You’ll receive honest, specific feedback designed to help you grow—not to judge or critique. We hold a safe space for your development and honor the coach you already are.
Will this help me pass my ICF performance evaluation (recorded session)?
Technically, yes - though we can't guarantee you a pass. We review your coaching through the lens of ICF’s markers and core competencies, so you’ll understand exactly what assessors look for. You’ll receive practical guidance and specific strategies to prepare your recording with confidence and excellence.
"Mentor Coaching is not just about ticking a credentialing box — it's a catalyst for evolving who you are as a coach."
