Supervision

Choosing a supervisor for your clinical practice is an important decision. I hope the following information provides you with enough information to make the correct choice. If you wish to discuss supervision for your practice, or require any further information, don't hesitate to contact me.

Supervision is a requirement for membership of the major hypnotherapy organizations and is generally regarded as essential to the provision of effective therapy. It is a central form of support that can facilitate personal development, encourage new ideas, and highlight strengths. It helps therapist to notice what works – their skills, abilities, and creative idea when working with clients and growing their business.

Solution focused supervision is respectful and non-expert, and involves working collaboratively with supervisees to encourage growth and development. Relationships are based on mutual respect and equality that encourages openness and honesty and provides an opportunity to reflect on client and business issues in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment.

Solution focused supervision uses:

• The supervisee's strengths
• Exceptions
• Scaling
• Focused questions
• Constructive feedback
• Goal setting.

The sessions will also be used to update supervisees on changes to our knowledge base, updates in understanding and techniques, and ways to market your business (including the use of social media). Solution focused supervision is a model that can work very well with other modalities.

One-to-one supervision can take place using Skype or phone. It is beneficial because it allows the focus to be on the therapist's individual workload and circumstances. one-to-one Supervision lasts up to an hour.

Supplementary phone supervision provides support inbetween one-to-one sessions where needed. A maximum of one hour is provided in the month following attendance at either a group or one-to-one session.
