 Whilst I both challenge and encourage supervisees to explore their work, looking at intent, interventions and case management - my approach remains person-centred.
I believe there are four elements to supervision and keep them in my awareness during my supervision sessions:-
Case Management: I hope to enable supervisees to be open and honest about their client work by building trusting relationships with them. I want to be able to challenge, when necessary, and to encourage supervisees to explore and address any issues with me.
Support and Training: I can assist with exploring and identifying training needs, locating appropriate courses and workshops, supporting with accreditation and supporting novice counsellors with their course work – some of this can fall under my mentoring umbrella.
Therapeutic presence: I feel there is a place for a therapeutic presence within the supervision relationship, when needed. I remain aware that if supervisees therapeutic needs begin to overtake our sessions, I will encourage them to seek therapy for themselves.
My approach to supervision is Person-Centred. I have also gained a varied experience of working with therapists from other approaches and am happy to continue to do so.
