How Does Mentoring Work?

Are you a professional or an aspiring professional in need of guidance with your cases? You are not alone! It can be tough to find help when you’re a professional as you’re supposed to know everything already, right?

Not so! Sometimes behavior is complicated and there’s nothing better than having a team to help you brainstorm ideas, give you applicable advice, and support you as you work through your cases.

My monthly mentoring program provides flexible and consistent support via phone, text, email, and video calls. This program includes:

  • Unlimited video reviews of your training or your client’s training. You can send me videos for feedback or we’ll meet via video call to go over the videos together.

  • Chat with me via text or phone every Mon, Tues, Wed, Fri, and Sat between 9 AM and 7 PM for questions, thoughts, concerns, advice, or just to brag about how genius the animals you're working with are 😉.

My goal is to be available for you as much as possible so that you can work through your cases successfully and grow your business to help more people and pets. My services are non-judgemental and confidential, so you can get the help you need regardless of where you are on your professional journey.

A valuable resource for professionals…

“As a professional horse trainer, I could always bounce my training problems off my network of other trainers. But having made the switch to positive reinforcement, that network disappeared. There are many online programs and trainers available for beginning R+ training, but where could I go? Michelle Martiya was my first choice for my problem, and she hit the bullseye.

She was able to quickly understand my problem, see where I was leaving holes in the training, suggested some excellent, effective, 100% R+ exercises, and showed me where I could tweak my technique for this particular horse. I was able to implement her suggestions the next day, with big results within 2 weeks. Michelle has deep experience with a variety of species as well as a thorough understanding of both positive reinforcement training and horses, which makes her a valuable resource, not just to beginners, but to all levels of trainers in any discipline.
