#CATsup19

Catalyse is offering an intensive 2 day ACAT Accredited Supervision Workshop for those considering training as an ACAT Accredited Supervisor.  Attendance at this and a follow up reflective session fulfils the Part 1 ACAT-approved training and forms part of the formal ACAT training pathway.  

The workshop is also open to those interested in developing as a supervisor and those who may be exploring the possibility of beginning their CAT supervisor training but are not yet sure or ready to start the ACAT training pathway. The training offers a chance to develop relational supervisory competencies.

The training draws on Debby Pickvance’s book ‘CAT supervision: a relational approach’ (Routledge, 2016) and will explore the relational approach to CAT supervision and challenges in the supervision relationship. It will focus on key aspects of supervision: building a supervisory alliance, use of self, parallel process, working with process in the room, supervision of development of CAT tools, dynamics in supervision groups, enactments and ruptures in supervision and ethical issues.

Methods include mapping relational patterns common in supervision, experiential exercises, small group reflection, trainer skills demonstrations, role play, mapping of personal supervisory style and presentations by the trainers on core ideas.

This course runs from 9.30am-5.00pm each day and will conclude with a follow up reflective group to build on the learning and internalisation of the relational supervision skills.

Comments last time we ran this event

  • I feel renewed & refreshed & ready to face the challenges of the NHS with CAT by my side!
  • It was inspiring, really good.  I really feel that it has saved me from a lot of anxiety when running supervisory groups.  I couldn’t have run them had I not come on the course.
  • The space and time has felt incredibly nourishing and as was named in the room prior to the ending it felt sad to leave it……
  • Thank you so much for these 2 days, I’m inspired to go out and be a CAT supervisor, aware of my flaws and able to ‘use them’.
