Supervision, Training, Consultation
Supervision and training is a career long necessity for all clinician’s professional development, reflective practice, to maintain professional ethics and to provide a quality service.
It comes with being human to have blind spots, to have our emotions triggered and for this to affect our behaviour. That is often why people seek therapy, to get help with seeing and doing things differently. Likewise, therapists can get stuck when working with their clients which is why regular supervision is so important.
This is particularly so for therapists who work with relationships and more than one person in the room. The power of strong emotions and behavioural patterns between people in a family system can be very challenging for the therapist.
I provide clinical supervision to health professionals wanting to develop their skills in general clinical mental health work, with individual and interpersonal trauma and with complex relationship dynamics.
As an accredited supervisor of the Australian Association of Family Therapy, I support mental health professionals training to become clinical family therapists and meeting the requirements for clinical membership.
I also attend supervision of supervision with a senior family therapist to maintain best practice standards.
