COACHING SUPERVISION
PERFORMANCE
Supervision provides a coach with time to consider their clients, those that leave you wondering, could I have done more? Have I missed something? Why am I leaving our sessions feeling unsettled?
Allowing yourself as a coach to expose those parts of your practice that might include doubts and hesitations but also to examine those coaching relationships that are flourishing.
Above all it is a time to get to know yourself better, to think about your core beliefs and to be safely challenged.
SKILL DEVELOPMENT
Supervision is a place to investigate new tools and techniques, to be creative and play with different ideas.
It is a safe, non-judgmental place to examine theory and to discuss and share the latest thinking and ideas in the field.
It also a place to consider what more you might wish to know and for the coach and coach supervisor to examine ideas together, to explore gaps in thinking and understanding.
CASE DILEMMAS & DYNAMICS
Coaching supervision is a place to bring case material, to reflect and consider what went well and what didn’t work so well.
In group supervision this process can be done with the added benefit of fellow coaches input and responses.
Coaches can come to supervision with dilemmas that go beyond goals, to consider how they make use of themselves, how to manage self-disclosure, how we show up for our clients, our presence.
SUPERVISION
Susan offers coaching supervision to individuals, pairs and small groups of coaches and coaching psychologists. Susan is registered with the British Psychological Society as a provider of supervision (on the RAPPS register) so those coaches working to chartership can be recognised as having had appropriate professional supervision.
Susan is in love with supervision, for herself and for the clients she feels privileged to work with. Supervision offers a psychologically safe, transitional space to support the coach as they unpick their client work, to understand their responses and reactions to particular challenges and to potentially guide to other resources. But supervision is so much more, it is also a space for the coach to explore whatever they wish to bring that will help them to function and be present in their coaching relationships. In order to untie the knots of our clients we need first to have untangled our own complexities and challenges. This of course is an ongoing challenge. Supervision offers a safe space to do this.
Susan also undertakes regular one to one and peer supervision to ensure her practice is ethical, safe and creative.
