About this event

Stepping into Supervision: ‘Contracting? Where are the Edges?’ with Jo Birch

Welcome! Do join us for this Introductory series about Supervision.

HOW DO WE WORK WITH THE ‘EDGES’?

An exploration of boundaries and bumps in practice

Where ARE the edges in our practice? how do we know they are there? Can we predict an edge, and our own response?

It’s my view that navigating the edges is a career-long exploration….perhaps life-long!

Edges come up in our everyday lives too! Where do we draw the boundary with those in our lives? With ourselves? How do we even find the edge?

In our practices, how do we work effectively with the edges, holding the container for the work with kindness and compassion and a steady hand?

What gets in our way? How do we get in our own way?

These are some of the things we might explore as we touch into this topic in our Stepping into Supervisoin series

The simple rule guiding supervision that we are working with today is

Hold the space, work with the edges

WHAT ARE SIMPLE RULES?

‘Simple rules’ is a term that describes a set of guiding principles, behaviours, we have seen within the practice of supervision that are generative. In other words, if we hold these behaviours, we might amplify the experience of ‘supervision’ as defined by those engaged in it.

STEPPING INTO SUPERVISION

Although we take a coaching perspective in this series, these workshops are suitable for anyone entering supervision, or training to become a supervisor, from any of the professional disciplines often known as the Helping Professions.

By coming together in a multi-professional group of coaches, counsellors, psychotherapists, teachers and other professionals we can re-consider some of our own assumptions and beliefs, open our heart, mind and will to new practice and become more clear on what kind of supervision fits best at present.

For those considering becoming a supervisor, each session in this series will offer one dimension of supervision, and with the engagement of colleagues participating in the workshop, old friends and new acquaintances, we might explore from multiple perspectives.

ZOOM

This workshop will be hosted on the Zoom meeting platform where we will use our cameras and microphones to interact with each other as a group.

SELF-SELECT FEE

The self-select fee is a radical inclusion policy to open learning for all colleagues. The guide price for this event is £20.00, however, we appreciate that income varies greatly in different locations and circumstances. Please contribute what you can to help us maintain inclusive professional training.
