Approach to Supervision:

• Initially to spend time considering together what the supervisee is hoping to get from supervision, and to agree a working contract. To explore expectations and concerns.

• To provide a space for the supervisee to reflect on their work with clients, and to bring their struggles and breakthroughs.

• To give the supervisee the opportunity to reflect on their development as a therapist.

• To consider ethical and professional issues in counselling.

• To address possible issues around safeguarding clients.

• To think about the application of theory to practice.

• To reflect on the ‘here and now’ relationship between supervisor and supervisee.
