How I work
01
02
Understanding what you carry.
I start with your experience. What is happening, how is it affecting you and what needs attention? Two frameworks help me keep the wider picture in view.
The Transforming Experience Framework (TEF)
I use TEF in professional supervision to explore your experience in role. We look at you as a person, the organisation you work in, the wider context and the values that guide you.
The Spiritual Health Framework
My doctoral work explores spiritual health through four relationships. For Christian leaders, we can reflect on your relationship with God, with yourself, with others and with your environment.
About Chris
Experience, reflection and respect for your context.
I am Chris Pretorius, a pastor, professional supervisor and leadership coach. I hold a D.Min (Spiritual Health) and an M.Div. I am an AAOS Associate Member (No. 900178). I work with leaders who need space to think, make sense of difficult experiences and find a way forward.
School leadership conversations are shaped around the participant's responsibilities, professional values and beliefs. Church and ministry support can explicitly incorporate Christian faith and theological reflection.
A clear agreement from the start
We agree the purpose of the work, fees, confidentiality, reporting and boundaries before sessions begin. Where a specific professional or employer requirement applies, acceptance is confirmed before you rely on the sessions to meet it.
How we begin
A conversation before a commitment.
1. Talk about fit. A free introductory conversation about your context and what you are looking for.
2. Agree the scope. Receive a clear proposal covering sessions, fees and professional boundaries.
3. Begin the work. Meet locally or online, with a purpose and rhythm agreed together.
Discovery & a way forward
Make room for what comes next.
Space to understand your experience, reconnect with what matters and explore your next steps. We begin with your situation and work at a pace agreed together.
