Working in the best way with your clients depends upon your ability to remain constantly curious and reflective about your practice and yourself. That’s why we believe that supervision is essential for every coach.
Supervision provides an opportunity to take a step back and think about your client and coaching-work dilemmas, which might relate to your own feelings and experiences, the ways in which you’re working and the business of coaching.
Our supervisors are all experienced and practicing EMCC coaches as well as qualified in the practice of supervision.
They will offer you a safe space to bring anything that matters to you and will provide:
Formative support
Enabling you to work on your skills and approaches to best serve you and your clients.
Normative support
Keeping a constant eye on theory or ethical practice and offering advice and guidance when you feel it might be helpful.
Restorative support
Listening, hearing and being in your corner and helping you to feel good about yourself and the work you do.
We offer both group supervision and 1:1 supervision online and in-person.
What happens in Individual Supervision?
You’ll bring a dilemma or dilemmas you are facing in your work as a coach – these may be personal, business related, or client related.
Your supervisor will talk to you about what you’ll need from the session and together you’ll work in partnership to find ways to reflect, create new perspectives and generate enabling insights to help you feel more confident and restored.
Your supervisor is available when you need them – they’re your first port of call in a coaching or ethical emergency.
What happens in Group Supervision?
You’ll check in together and acknowledge how you are as people.
You’ll take time to contract and check out how the group can create a really safe and powerful space to reflect, explore and learn together.
You’ll each share something that’s part of your coaching world right now. This might be a dilemma about a coaching client, a grapple or excitement you’re exploring in your practice, or something about your world in general that seems to be having an impact on your coaching.
You’ll take time to explore, reflect upon, challenge, support and generate some insights about the things being shared, so that both the person sharing, and those helping, mutually learn and reflect. You’ll be engaged in mature and professional dialogue together.
