Post Graduate Certificate/Diploma in Supervision 2025: A Relational Change Process
Commencing January 2025, Kingston Upon Thames and ONLINE via Zoom. We are intending to run this as a hybrid course with two modules on-line and two face-to-face (three for those taking the Diploma). Please contact Lynda Osborne if you would like to discuss this.
Supervision is a requirement for counsellors, psychotherapists as well as coaches and many others in the helping professions. Whether working clinically or in a coaching setting with clients, it is not unusual for practitioners to experience relational and practice difficulties. This translates into the need for a supervisor who can offer new models and a fresh perspective as well as supporting competent practice. Our approach to supervision practice is deeply relational. On this 10 day course over 9 months, we will consider the relationships between the self of the client, the therapist/coach and the supervisor, their specific contexts, and the wider field, based upon our new matrix model of a relational approach to supervision and supervisory practice. You can download the BGJ paper by Chidiac, Denham-Vaughan and Osborne
