About this workshop
Becoming a supervisor (or enhancing your current knowledge and skills) is a continuous journey of professional and personal development, in a similar way to the journey we undertake as therapists. Supervision entails a combination of knowledge and skills we use in our therapeutic work with clients along with knowledge and skills of supporting other practitioners to develop, which includes exploring the current evidence base of clinical supervision, the ethical and organisational influences that shape the supervisory relationship, and the varied methods in which supervision is provided. Central to the supervision process is how to create a compassion relationship and learning culture. For this we utilise concepts from different models but with special focus from attachment theory such as secure base and haven. Indeed helping supervisors understand how they guide their supervisees to develop secure base and haven as part of the therapeutic process is central to our course.
This series of workshops have been created to gradually build a framework of knowledge and skills, to support the continued development of supervisors – with a particular emphasis on how we can use the CFT model to inform how we supervise.
The sessions have been purposely designed to provide short two hours sessions each month, exploring different themes, with the opportunity to reflect, plan and practice between sessions before coming back together the following month to share and build on progress, in a supportive, compassionate environment.
