Her humour and compassion for the pit falls of the CRV journey make it altogether a fantastic mentoring experience.

“Having trained with other trainers in CRV from Basic to Advanced in 2019 and 2020, I felt I had only partially understood and implemented the value of right cueing and move commands, and the power of the CRV structure in general. I lacked an understanding into why and when I ventured off into castle building and strategies to avoid building them in the first place.

Working with Coleen across a number of one-on-one mentoring sessions has helped me build a new foundation for my CRV work, and fill in gaps from Basic / Intermediate / Advanced levels.

The post-session analysis of one’s own work is rigorous and compassionate at the same time, and invaluable for growing in the field of CRV. Coleen has a strong ethical compass for target selection and tasking when working within the CRV world, something that seems to be increasingly rare in the field altogether.

Through Coleen’s mentoring, I have a new appreciation of the depth CRV offers as a remote sensing modality. A life-long learning journey that can yield the most accurate and detailed of results if the viewer understands it takes regular, dedicated work to get past their own biases, assumptions and the forever busy monkey mind. Her humour and compassion for the pit falls of the CRV journey make it altogether a fantastic mentoring experience.”
