How do you evaluate your evaluation?
How do you evaluate your work? This question was asked to me by my therapy tutor a couple of weeks ago. I was in a practice supervision session - we did a practice counselling session with a peer, then we took an issue from that session to supervision.
The BACP mandates supervision for its accredited members. Supervision is defined as a specialised form of mentoring for those undertaking challenging work with people.
It’s space for you to reflect. If something came up in a session that triggered you, or there’s something that doesn’t feel quite right, taking it to supervision is a good first step. Then you reflect and explore it with your supervisor, and take any learnings back to sessions.
