About the Clinical Supervision series

Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) training

Since the early eighties, Professor Paul Gilbert and many colleagues have been involved in developing Compassion Focused Therapy's practice, theory, and research. CFT is a continuously developing approach to psychotherapy that has resulted in many therapists across many countries engaging in training in CFT. To date, many CFT workshops have been provided by Professor Gilbert and colleagues across many countries. Over recent years, we have also seen a rise in the development of longer training courses that aim to support trainees in developing a deeper understanding of the knowledge and practices of CFT indifferent countries, including the BPS Approved Diploma in Compassion Focused Therapy from the Compassionate Mind Foundation in the UK. The next stage of development is to support training in clinical supervision.

Clinical Supervision Training

Supervisor training is designed for therapists who are already experienced psychotherapists/counsellors and may already be providing clinical supervision. Or are looking to develop as clinical supervisors.

In the past, supervision skills have been learned by being supervised or supervising. However, this is changing; the past 15 years has seen an increase in formal supervisor training and qualifications across different countries.

 

Clinical supervision training and CFT

Given the development of both training in CFT and the skills and theories of clinical supervision, it is an appropriate time to develop continuous professional development (CPD) programmes to support the clinical supervision of CFT. To facilitate this development, CMF is offering the following series of training courses. The courses are designed as a series of training workshops to facilitate supervisor training depending on supervisors' developmental stage.

I can't attend live, can I watch the recordings after the live broadcast instead?

Due to the interactive nature of this workshop, and that it will contain a lot of group work, we feel you'd be missing too much of it's value if you cannot participate live. So, we have requested that all delegates attend live.
