“The in-house supervision group…..was the enabling moment for me. I decided that I would go on from there and run my own supervision group. It was an excellent investment in time and a sharp learning curve. It made me aware of the power of the group to cover blind spots and how group wisdom is at times more than the sum of its parts when harnessed.”
Aims
This intensive two and a half day, skills training course is open to:
The course will offer:
The course will begin with a welcome and an introduction to the aims and methods at 5.00 pm on Tuesday. After an early evening meal at 6.00 pm, there will be a 90 minute skills practice followed by the personal reflection group. Days two and three will follow the same pattern and the course will finish at 3.30 / 4.00 pm on Thursday.
Methods
Skills practice and supervision of the key aspects of CAT will be demonstrated step by step through role play by the trainers followed by role play in small groups of three by the participants. This skills work will be alternated with personal reflection groups which will explore common enactments in the role of the CAT supervisor. Issues relating to being active, authoritative and flexible within the zone of the supervisee’s learning will be explored. There will be two key presentations relating to CAT supervision on the topic of Transference and Counter Transference and therapeutic moments in the context of a dialogical and analytic approach to relational skills in the supervision of CAT. Part of the ethos of the course will be the shared experience of being a community of supervisors committed to CAT. Participants will bring details of a recent or current case, with which they are familiar, as the basis of role play.
