Topics covered will include: contracting, ethics, issues of difference, assessment and focusing, Clarkson’s five relational modalities, unconscious relational processes including transference and countertransference, developmental stages, the organisational context of supervision, the internal supervisor, and working with groups.
The experiential/practice component will include role-played practice sessions as well as the opportunity for group supervision of the supervisory work of the participant.
Participants will be required to write a theoretical paper (4000

will be through self, peer and tutor assessment procedures. After
the successful completion of the course a Diploma will be awarded.

"Well structured. Gave space for thoughts, feelings, experiences and included my process of development as a person and professional."
