How often should I attend supervision?
This depends on your level of practice and professional requirements.
Trainee counsellors will usually follow the requirements set by their training provider, while qualified counsellors often attend supervision monthly or in line with professional body guidelines.
Is supervision suitable for trainee counsellors?
Yes, supervision is available for trainee counsellors and can be structured to meet course requirements.
We provide a supportive and professionally grounded space to help you develop your practice while working safely and ethically.
Can I have supervision on an ad hoc basis?
Yes, supervision can be arranged on a regular or ad hoc basis, depending on your needs and circumstances.
What happens if I need to cancel a session?
If you need to cancel or reschedule, please provide as much notice as possible.
Further details regarding cancellations can be discussed when arranging your supervision sessions.
Is supervision confidential?
Yes, supervision is confidential and conducted in line with professional and ethical guidelines.
However, as part of ethical practice, there may be a need to discuss risk or safeguarding concerns appropriately. This will always be handled sensitively and professionally.
What if I need to speak to my supervisor between booked appointments?
If you need brief support between sessions, you are welcome to make contact and we will respond as soon as possible.
Where more in-depth discussion is required, an additional supervision session can be arranged.
This ensures that your work is supported appropriately while maintaining clear professional boundaries.
Are reports included or is there an additional cost?
There are no additional costs for occasional reports where these are required as part of your training or professional requirements.
If we have agreed to work together, this is recognised as part of the supervisory relationship.
Where more substantial or frequent reports are needed, this can be discussed and agreed in advance.
