Advanced Course in Counselling Supervision
This Advanced Course in Counselling Supervision* is aimed at experienced counsellors and supervisors, who want to be able to supervise at a Psychotherapeutic level.
Validated by Counselling and Psychotherapy in Scotland (COSCA), this supervision course was developed as a result of a new approach to counselling. The course is fundamentally about ‘making meaning’; underpinned by attachment theory it integrates counselling theories from orientations including Psychoanalytical, Cognitive Behavioural and Humanistic schools (Person Centred and Transactional Analysis).
It uses a multi-model framework for supervision (Proctor and Inskipp, Shohet and more) while being strongly influenced by Egan’s Skilled Helper. There is also a focus on group supervision and group dynamics.
