Psychotherapists and counsellors are required to have regular clinical supervision by their ethical and professional body. The purpose of clinical supervision is to enhance the clinical practice of psychotherapists and counsellors through casework discussions. It also serves the purpose of professional development.
The aims of clinical supervision are:
To ensure the psychotherapist/ counsellor is working safely and ethically
To support the psychotherapist/ counsellor's professional growth and development
To explore the impact the psychotherapist/ counsellor's clients have on their work and their wellbeing.
To consult on challenges and difficulties the psychotherapist/ counsellor encounters in their clinical work with clients.
To enhance the psychotherapist/ counsellor's knowledge and expertise.
Clinical supervision is a supportive space to reflect on the therapeutic work that is being done with clients.
