Resources

helping you learn about Relational Mindfulness, coaching supervision and other related areas through the books and articles I have written and conference presentations I have given

Over many years, I have seen how fostering awareness, kindness and wisdom helps people and organisations thrive. I passionately believe in the difference these qualities can make and my work is about creating kinder, wiser, more aware relationships, leadership, teams and workplaces. In my role as a Coaching Psychologist, Coaching Supervisor, Relational Mindfulness teacher and Occupational Psychologist, I have spent nearly 25 years providing support to individuals, teams and organisations, while also conducting research and engaging with public policy.

Initially focused on the importance of leadership and management in preventing stress and enhancing wellbeing at work, my work as an Occupational Psychologist naturally led me to explore the value of coaching and mindfulness in improving leadership, management and relationships of all kinds in the workplace. Over time and following my doctoral research, Relational Mindfulness and Coaching Supervision have emerged as the best ways to bring my skills and my way of being into this field of work.

What others say about Dr Emma Donaldson-Feilder

“[Dr Emma Donaldson-Feilder’s RM] programme provided space, connection and development. Space to pause, to reflect, to share, to breathe. Connection with myself and others, to individuals, the collective and what it is to be human and to listen. Development that gently challenged some of my dialogue habits and helped me to let go of the tightly held roles and expectations around speaking and listening.”

“Emma has precision and passion in delivering this deep learning RM programme. Her wisdom and skill are actively demonstrated throughout this well paced programme allowing each of us the space and voice to explore how we develop our own personal practice. I’m certain that this RM programme has played a huge part in supporting my wellbeing over the last year!”

“Emma’s coaching supervision is deeply reflective, developmental, and systemically aware. She brings a calm, mindful presence that encourages deeper self-exploration and professional growth. Her ability to challenge constructively, while maintaining a non-judgmental and psychologically safe space, has been instrumental in refining my coaching practice.”

“Just being in Emma’s virtual presence is supervision – embracing and embedding how to be and behave with and for our clients. Thank you for our years of working together, Emma, in support of my work!”
