Supervision
My supervision offers an appreciative reflective space to explore your practice. In supervision you can challenge assumptions, think through ethical dilemmas and do the disentanglement work. One question we explore is “what belongs to you, and what belongs to the system?” Ideal for coaches, therapists, and consultants. See how supervision works.
Disentanglement
What is supervision?
Supervision is a reflective exploration of our practice in the helping professions. It is a space for:
Thinking through ethical dilemmas
Examining ourselves and our professional relationships from multiple perspectives
Generating clarity, insight and new connections
Bringing into view the invisible systems and entanglements that may be shaping our thinking
Making sense of confusion, difficulty or disorientation
Receiving support and encouragement
Noticing patterns and long-held narratives
There is often an educational element too, as your supervisor is likely to bring significant experience to the conversation.
Supervision is not just a process — it is a relationship. I deeply value my own supervision and treasure the time I spend there. It's a safe space for vulnerability.
This is the work of my supervision practice; space to disentangle a bit, for a while, to properly allow yourself to work stuff out. To be appreciated, encouraged and listened to, and sometimes invited to check your assumptions.
I love the saying derived from Chekhov “Don’t tell me the moon is shining, show me the glint of light on the broken glass”.
My supervision practice is available to practitioners from all walks of life who want to examine their practice with guided reflections. Typically people who come are coaches, internal and external consultants working in OD, Change and other business owners. I have worked with therapists and mental health practitioners.
People can arrive at Supervision feeling bewildered, upset, stressed, stuck, lacking in energy and leave lighter, clearer, more grounded.
When people know they have somewhere to take their vulnerability, their ethical dilemmas, their “am I doing OK” self… they can hear more, be more present with their clients. They can be at ease in their work.
We cannot know the “answers” to everything; and supervision allows us to stay in enquiry mode; helping our clients to do their best for their clients. Noticing more about what we are experiencing, feeling and thinking.
I supervise individuals and groups.
Individual supervision is an hour, usually via Zoom, and often at a frequency determined by the amount of client hours an individual is undertaken. Monthly is typical.
Group supervision is usually two hours and either monthly or six weekly.
Contracting is fundamental in supervision and coaching work and a first session will include attention to the process of how we work together; the process, and the psychological aspects of contracting.
Give yourself the space to think.
Whether you're navigating a big decision, feeling pulled in too many directions, or simply craving space to think without interruption, a short pause with the right guide can change everything.
