Hypnotherapy & Research Supervision
I offer three types of supervision:
Group supervision
Individual supervision
Research supervision
Group Supervision
Online group supervision is available on a monthly basis (usually mid-week). The two-hour meetings are capped at 10 participants, to give each person sufficient case discussion time.
I co-ordinate the group, support confidentiality and keep the group on task, utilising the time most effectively for all.
All participants have opportunities to engage during the group supervision session.
Participating in a supervision group can counteract social isolation and gain the advantages of working in a cohesive, collaborative and supportive environment.
In addition, participation in group supervision also enables hypnotherapists to exchange professional knowledge (what works and what doesn’t), manage professional problems and ethical dilemmas, reduce stress and increase professionalism within their work.
Group supervision sessions are £30 and are held 6:30 - 8:30pm (UK time).
Individual Supervision
Individual supervision gives you a flexible opportunity to organise the session according to your own needs, whether it is discussing current cases, future cases, past training, future training, professional development, personal impact of therapy, or aspects relating to business management and development.
An individual session may include the discussion of key aims and objectives for the session; presentation of cases, including key client information, what you planned to do, what you did, how it went, what went well, what didn’t, what you learned, what you need to learn, how you felt about it (emotional, mental, physical), together with any ethical dilemmas; discussion of case and alternative approaches, brainstorming, role playing, and consideration of possible outcomes; exploration of development needs (concise, creative, supportive); or any other issues or points that you may wish to raise.
There are a number of benefits from individual supervision:
Improvement in communication skills
Practice in supportive skills, such as active listening
Reflection and discussion on case management and work style
Enhanced awareness of professional interactions
Quality assurance
Skills review and enhancement
Review of work-life perspectives
Challenging assumptions
Professional support
Counteracting 'therapist-burnout'
One-to-one supervision sessions are usually highly focused around the your supervision needs. They can be done in person (face to face) or over the phone/ Zoom/ Skype.
Face to face supervision can be booked in multiples of one hour, with a one-hour minimum. This is held in London (W1).
Online supervision can be booked in multiples of 15-minute segments.
Research Supervision
I offer research guidance for hypnotists and hypnotherapists who wish to conduct hypnosis or hypnotherapy research independently.
I also offer subject-specialist supervision alongside academic supervision for students engaged in formal study with a college or university.
It may be that you are seeking help in just one area of the research process, or support through the entire process. I can help you develop new skills, techniques, tools and materials to enable you to conceive, design, implement and adapt your own research process.
I can also teach you how to engage with critical analysis, evaluation and synthesis of new and complex ideas.
