Supervision
Supervision is about creating a safe space where the supervisee can openly share their experiences with clients. It involves a collaborative exploration between the supervisor and the supervisee.
I hope we can establish this safe space together—one that is free of judgment—so you can discuss your client's work and any dilemmas you wish to address. We will work collaboratively, either online or face-to-face, often using metaphor and creative methods to gain deeper insights into your client's work.
The Seven Eyed Supervision Model
I provide supervision for counsellors and psychotherapists, utilizing the Seven-Eyed Model, which examines various perspectives: the client, the therapist, the supervisor, the relationships between the therapist and the client, between the therapist and the supervisor, and the broader system at play. My approach is informed by the normative, formative, and restorative functions of clinical supervision, using these concepts as a framework alongside the Seven-Eyed Model (Hawkins & Shohet).
What Is The Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision?
The Seven-Eyed Supervision model was developed by Peter Hawkins and Robin Shohet in 1985, who integrated the relational and systemic aspects of supervision into a single theoretical model.
The model is relational because it focuses on the relationships between client, therapist and supervisor and systemic because it focuses on the interplay between each relationship and their context within the wider system. The model is called “seven eyed” because it focuses on seven distinct aspects of the therapeutic process.
It’s important for supervisees simply to be aware of each of the “eyes” of the model.
