CPCAB – LEVEL 6 CERTIFICATE (Online) (90 hours)
Therapeutic Supervision
A Relational and Systemic Approach
About the Course
During this online course you will learn the essential skills necessary to supervise counselling practitioners who are working with clients at CPCAB service levels A & B (see part 1 of the CPCAB Model). The supervisory skills learned will equip you to manage the fundamental aspects of the clinical supervisor’s role, including:
• Providing supervisee support and guidance
• Encouraging self-review
• Monitoring supervision progress
• Managing legal and ethical boundaries
• Developing awareness of the supervision process
• Working with relationship issues which impact both on the counselling and supervision process.
The theoretical models used on this course are Person-Centred and the Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision. Although theoretical knowledge is important for a supervisor, so is the supervisor-supervisee relationship. The course also focuses on ethics, diversity, user-centred work, and self-awareness.
