'Stuck' scenarios in supervision - PART ONE
Being STUCK in supervisory moments is like sitting with your back to the supervisee.
You miss what’s in FRONT of you.
Developed by Lydia Sterry B.A (hons) M.A
We’re all human, we’re going to be a part of some “good” supervision sessions and even some “good enough” sessions.
Other times, we may encounter challenging sessions.
I’m interested in these challenging sessions.
These sessions are the ones where we might be able to learn something.
Challenging sessions only continue to be challenging if we neglect to make the effort to learn from them.
The course opens an exploration to understand and address various challenges in supervision.
General Course Description
The goal of this ONLINE VIDEO & POWER POINT program is to delve deeply into finding a halfway step towards responding to resistances in supervision. The course highlights how by speaking in terms of ‘maybe’, or ‘perhaps’ to the supervisee, we allow BOTH the supervisee and supervisor the space to play with these resistances in the session. Once in that “play” mode interaction, resistance maybe lowered, creating room for surprising insights to arrive.
The course is not about looking to give insight to the supervisee, but rather to let it be discovered by the supervisee and supervisor together.
Of course, there are times when we may need to be more direct than tentative, but the course highlights how overall, understanding is better to arrive from the supervisee’s own cues.
Using concrete examples, the course content guides you through navigating certain types of challenges, encouraging an approach that avoids attacking, being paralysed, or running away.
Overall Overall, it opens up your viewpoint towards experimenting with Existential Supervision to meet resistances in supervision.
Whether you’re a psychotherapist, psychiatrist, psychologist, chaplain, pastoral carer, rabbi, social worker, doctor, working with supervisee or trainees, you may benefit from doing this course.
This course is offered as a two-part Program.
