Types of supervision available
We offer supervision to individuals and groups on a regular, occasional or ad hoc basis.
One-to-one supervision
One-to-one supervision best suits those wishing to support and develop their practice, or those who are working towards accreditation with a relevant professional body. There is time to explore clinical issues and challenges in depth and to develop effective approaches to these.
Group supervision
Group supervision is suited to those who wish to focus on developing their practice in a particular area. It allows experiences to be shared in a supportive and encouraging way and is facilitated by a highly experienced practitioner. Group supervision can also be used in teams to build understanding, improve skills and gain expert input.
Consultancy
Expert consultancy is available for specific issues linked to professional practice in the area of mental health, such as psychometric measures, therapeutic techniques, report writing, etc.
CPD and training
Our CPD and training are available to organisations and groups wishing to develop expertise in certain areas. In addition, we run regular CPD events focusing on contemporary issues in the field of mental health and therapy.
