Supervision
 As with my approach to psychotherapy, I am an integrative supervisor. I received my official Certificate in Supervision from Metanoia institute in 2009. However, I have worked as a supervisor in other capacities for many years in my role as a university professor, overseeing the work of graduate students.
According to M. Carroll (1986) the Seven Tasks of Supervision are:
- To set up a learning relationship
- To introduce new concepts
- To evaluate
- To monitor professional and ethical issues
- To counsel
- To consult, and
- To set up a ‘learning relationship’
Essentially, supervision for me is about the relationship we develop together, around the work, over time. My responsibilities as a supervisor include working with you to create a contract, working with you to identify key issues as they arise in the work, working together to reduce the probability of harm as well as to increase the developmental direction. It is my goal to maintain a respectful relationship with trained and experienced colleagues and also to ensure that ethical codes of conduct are followed.
