Creative embodied group supervision for therapists, clinicians and service providers

For therapists, allied health and medical clinicians and service providers wanting to feel clear, nourished, energised and connected in a supportive community of peers.

From $99 (incl. GST) / session.

Join your colleagues for a different experience of clinical supervision inside this creative, monthly closed group supervision program.

Using a framework that embraces the principles of trauma stewardship, trauma-informed practice and collective care, participants will be invited to connect with and reflect upon their experiences through processes that may include:

• quiet reflection (journaling, drawing)
• discussion
• music listening
• supportive music and imagery experiences
• creative soundscapes
• mandala drawing
• psychoeducation about the impacts of trauma, interpersonal neurobiology, the stress response cycle
• psychoeducation and experience of creative arts, music and embodied approaches in therapeutic work

You will find rest, clarity, nourishment, connection and support in a community of competent and respectful peers.

Create the space you need to develop your reflective capacity so that you can meet the needs of yourself and your clients or patients.

These sessions will offer opportunities to sit with what is good and what is hard in the work, with equal consideration given to the vicarious impacts of both.

These are all processes that you will be invited to participate in as you feel comfortable.

**No writing, music listening, movement or drawing experience are required (whilst you are welcome to, there will be no making you sing or dance here!)**

How this program helps you to keep doing the work that you love without burning out:

✔ Commit to making space for yourself and your needs each month (with your very own cheer squad!):

✔ Connect with like-minded, capable peers who will “get you" and support you to connect with your own needs.

✔Create a regular practice of self supports, using a stepped approach that works for, and attends to, your unique needs.

✔ Learn how to go underneath thoughts and talking to get to the source of the issue and discover resources and tools to support you at home, at work and in between.

✔ Learn how to make space and create pockets of rest to bring you energy, calm and nourishment.

✔ Explore your unique, creative and embodied self and gain understanding through shared experience music, art, symbols, imagery, writing, talking, moving, and embodied resources.

✔ Understand the impacts of work on you and explore how aspects of the 'Joy-pain spectrum' framework can aggravate or mitigate your potential for burnout or vicarious trauma.
