Our guiding principles:
Relational
We honor the human-to-human connection in every supervisory relationship. When we bring our whole selves to supervision, we allow our supervisee to do the same.
Developmental models
Supervision should adapt to where the supervisee is in their journey, offering appropriate levels of challenge and support. This is supported by experience, scope of practice awareness and compassionate empathy.
Reflective practice
It is important for supervisors to cultivate self-awareness, cultural humility and a commitment to lifelong learning. Understanding how we contribute to the experience of the supervisees and indirectly their clients is an important part of being an effective supervisor.
Trauma-informed
We acknowledge the nervous systems in the room – both supervisee and supervisor, ensuring that we are working from a place of safety, regulation and curiosity.
