Helping Dentists

Stress Less

Start Your

Journey

Welcome to Helena Alder Coaching where I exist to empower you as a dentist to lead yourself out of stress, anxiety, burnout and pain, as well as leading and managing your staff and team members with greater effectiveness and impact as you do so. 

​

I call this becoming your own Inner Leader. 

​

I offer bespoke coaching programmes to support you achieve this, and please feel free to have a browse around and see how I can help you. I'm glad you're here. 

Stress & Anxiety

Being a dentist is a rewarding, but challenging career with many ups and downs. Stress, anxiety and also burnout and depression are no strangers to a lot of dentists. There are many contributing factors to stress and anxiety in our profession, but thankfully there are also many resources available to remedy and get to the root of your stress and anxiety in your clinical practice.     

Do you:

​

• Feel persistent feelings of stress, anxiety or burnout when you are at work and dealing with patients?

​​

• Feel overwhelmed by the relentless daily grind of dentistry?

​​

• Struggle to know how to get your head above water and find some relief from the daily pressures?

​​

• Worry about going to work on a regular basis, or are you kept up at night thinking about patients and treatment plans and outcomes?

​​

• Experience persistent physical pain that does not go away in spite of nothing being wrong physically?

​​

• Try setting up systems to support you or set new intentions to show up differently, but you end up falling into the same old traps regularly anyway?

​​

• Feel like you are firefighting every day?

Would you like to:

​

• Feel more enjoyment in your daily practice as a dentist and more light-hearted about going to work every day?

​​

• Feel more inner calm and in control of how your day unfolds?

​​

• Develop reliable strategies that you can employ when things do not go according to plan with patients?

​​

• Actually enjoy seeing patients every day?

​​

• Be able to work constructively with your worries, not letting them run you and stop them from ruminating in the background at all times?

​​

• Feel more confident in your abilities as a dentist and take on more complex treatment plans?

​​

• Not worry about being sued and letting this stop you progressing on your career path?

Leadership as a Dentist

of Yourself and Others

​

To me, being your own inner leader first of all looks like taking charge of your own clinical situation and any stress, anxiety, burnout or depression that is impacting you in your practice and well-being as a dentist.

You've worked so hard to get to where you are, and yet, the daily grind as a dentist can be truly challenging and downright hard. This isn't what you signed up for when you first entered dental school. At least that was the case for me. 

​

Hence, having an experienced dentist who's also an Integral Coach™ to support you take charge and turn things around can be invaluable. Supporting you untangling your unique situation and providing a personalised and compassionate approach to address any struggles and areas of challenge you are facing at the moment, will allow for relief and a road map for your path forward of your Inner Leadership as a dentist. 

​

The GDC maps out the four key areas of Development Outcomes (A,B,C,D) for CPD for dentists. The first two categories A and B speak to the requirement of effective communication across dentistry, as well as effective management of self and others in the interest of patients, providing constructive leadership when appropriate.

​

As the complexity and requirements within dentistry keep increasing, COVID is upon us and seemingly here to change the ways of practicing dentistry for quite some time, effective management and leadership of self and others is more crucial than ever before. All in service of ourselves as dentists, of our dental team and of our patients.
