Professional supervision

Professional Supervision is a structured process in which an experienced supervisor provides guidance and support to people working in a wide variety of professions. Issues that often arise in supervision include, but are not limited to:

  • Ethical dilemmas 
  • Conflict with colleagues or clients
  • Crisis of confidence/impostor syndrome
  • Career uncertainty
  • Increasing demands
  • Stress and trauma

The supervision relationship assists you to reflect on your practice, receive feedback and develop skills in a safe, confidential and supportive environment. Through regular sessions, you can address challenges, enhance professional competencies, and ensure that ethical and professional standards are adhered to. Supervision helps you to discover new strategies and to make decisions based on an evaluation of actions and possible consequences of those actions.

Many professionals from a wide range of disciplines feel isolated and unsupported, and professional supervision is one way to mitigate that lack of support. The growth in confidence and ability when supervisees engage in this kind of regular reflective practice leads to better outcomes for both professionals and the individuals they serve.
