EXAMPLES OF NORMATIVE ASPECTS OF SUPERVISION;

* Ensuring you coach based on a respected professional body’s ethical coaching guidelines.

* If needed, supporting you to work through to credentialling with a professional body to support both your coaching practice and your credibility as you gain buy-in and trust from clients and procuring organisations.

EXAMPLES OF FORMATIVE ASPECTS OF SUPERVISION:

* Supporting your reflection and learning on “key moments” within your practice and identifying patterns which may hinder your effectiveness as a coach.

* Keeping the spotlight on the vital contracting phase promoting clarity and protecting healthy boundaries in all the stakeholder relationships involved.

* Learning to trust your intuition to inform your questions and feedback to clients.   Being more “you” in sessions.

EXAMPLES OF RESTORATIVE ASPECTS OF SUPERVISION:

* You can bring any aspect of your life and work to supervision that may be affecting your coaching practice – it’s all welcome.

* If you find yourself worrying about clients and their issues in between sessions, this may benefit from some inner-boundary work in supervision.

* Listening and presence takes energy and we can get burnt out. My wish is that supervision sessions are your safe space to return for re-fueling and grounding. 

As a coach supervisor, I am able to model psychologically-based approaches that underpin positive coaching relationships.     My coaching and supervision practice is underpinned by the Schools of Gestalt and Transactional Analysis.  Therefore, when appropriate, I will model Use of Self and Here and Now approaches which are also key components of a powerful coaching relationship.    As a past Programme Director of the Novum (formerly PB Coaching) Post Graduate Certificate in Business and Executive Coaching, I am able to draw on a range of theory from Systems Perspectives, Gestalt, Mindfulness and Bodywork in Coaching.    If you are completing an EMCC accredited course I am able to support you in that process.

I designed and deliver Leeds Beckett’s ILM Level 5 in Coaching and Mentoring providing indivdiual  and group supervision for those trainees too.    With PB Coaching (Novum-UK) I gained my Supervision qualification in 2014, and have been regularly seeing coaching supervisees on a weekly basis since then.   

If you’re close to Leeds then we can meet in my Session Room in LS6, otherwise I am happy to work on-line with you.        

If you would like to discuss the possibility of a trial supervision with me please use the contact page on this website.
