Overview
“Supervision is a central form of support, where we can focus on our own difficulties as a worker as well as have our supervisor share some of the responsibility for our work with the clients. Second, supervision forms part of our continual learning and development as workers” (Hawkins, & Shohet, 2000, p.23)
With this in mind, we will spend the day looking at how supervision can be used to support our practice and self-care. We will look at how we might identify material useful for exploration in supervision and how we might present it. We will consider blocks we might have to presenting material and the impact of this on our practice. There will be a chance to explore the way in which you present material to your supervisor and an opportunity to learn about Hawkins and Shohet’s Seven Eyed Process Model, which can then be used to enhance your supervision experience with a supervisor.
Mark has been supervising counsellors and student counsellors for many years and will share his experiences of providing supervision to provide an insight into supervision work from the supervisor’s perspective.
