Professional supervision

A confidential, reflective space, professional supervision strengthens safe, ethical practice and sustains your work over time. It may involve management, seeking advice, and meeting personal needs.

Professional supervision is a structured conversation about your work. It gives you a place to bring real cases, dilemmas and questions, and to reflect on them with a trained supervisor.

Supervision is particularly helpful to counsellors, spiritual directors, clergy, chaplains and others in care-focused roles to stay grounded, accountable and well. It is often a professional or organisational requirement and can be helpful with issues that arise during spiritual direction.

To prepare for supervision, it can help to bring a recent situation, theme, or question from your work life, and notice where you felt stretched, stuck, enlivened, or uneasy. This will enable you to be ready to look at both the theme or question and its impact on you.

Supervision is recommended monthly or by arrangement and lasts for 60 minutes.

Conversations are private, with standard exceptions where disclosure is required by law or where there is a serious risk of harm.

Pā Maria offers professional supervision in person.
