Clinical Supervision/Consultation – Small Groups or Supervision Dyads – Online
Sandy offers ongoing online clinical supervision to small groups of beginning, intermediate and seasoned counselling professionals. Group supervision promotes accelerated personal and professional growth through shared learning, peer support and mutual feedback. We learn best within a supportive safe space, where we feel comfortable to share, brainstorm, connect, laugh and come away with practical ideas to use with clients.
Group Supervision is for 3 to 4 people with each person receiving 30-40 minutes of Direct or Case Consultation time, and 80-90 minutes of Group Supervision. Cost is $157.50 per person for a 2-hour session ($75 per hour + GST). There is also an option to participate in the Group Supervision only, but not present your own cases – this can be an amazing way to learn and gain your Indirect supervision hours. Cost is $105 per 2-hour session ($50 per hour + GST).
Paired Supervision Dyad work is for 2 people. $157.50 per person for a 2-hour session ($75 per hour). There is also an option to participate in the Paired Supervision, but not present your own cases – this can be an amazing way to learn and gain your Indirect supervision hours.
