Professional Supervision is for people working with people. Engaging in professional supervision provides a space for you away from work to have time out to talk, reflect and discuss workplace successes, visions, conflicts, complex issues and your workplace wellbeing.

Setting aside an hour each month to talk in a safe and confidential space supports you and helps you maintain your professional identity and helps you stay well at work.

Who is professional supervision for?

Professional Supervision can be beneficial across all sectors. Supervision can also support those working in isolation and without collegial support. Supervision is designed to free you up so you can better focus within your workplace, and focus more on your own private life outside your workplace. 

Supervision - How does it work?

After an initial ‘meet and greet’ you will have the option to meet in person or online/by phone (Nelson/Tasman region) once a month for one hour. For people outside of the Nelson/ Tasman region, the options are online or phone.

As a starting point, we will refer to the Reflective Learning Model (Davys, 2001), a framework for exploring topics and issues. There will be an opportunity for mutual feedback at the end of each session. 

Professional Supervision using the reflective learning model is not hierarchical or managerial. It is professionally collegial and supportive. The regular monthly one hour session is for you to discuss your workshop issues and challenges, as well as your aspirations and successes. We check on your workplace wellbeing together and there is also an opportunity for resources to be shared.

Before we get underway, we design a collaborative agreement and this is a working document that can be reviewed every three months.
