Coaching and Mentoring Group Supervision
These group supervision sessions, hosted by Lesley Cave, address the skills, understanding and capabilities of the supervisee through the reflection and exploration of the supervisee’s work with their clients. In this exploration, the supervisor helps the coach to: understand the client better, become more aware of their own reactions and responses to the client, understand the dynamics of coach–client interaction, examine how they intervened and the consequences, explore other ways of working with this and other similar client situations.
This CPD offer is for coaches and mentors who are registered with the EoE Coaching and Mentoring Hub and are actively supporting staff working in systems across the region. It is not tailored for clinical supervision.
