Supervision Course
Outline of the course which is offered from time to time.
The course is offered to spiritual directors who have:
-
completed a training course in spiritual direction
-
embarked upon the formal ministry of spiritual direction (or substantial similar experience, such as accompanying others as a prayer guide in weeks/months of guided prayer)
-
some experience of being in supervision, whether one-to-one or in a peer group.
You will need to be accompanying at least one person at the moment, or to have done so fairly recently, so that you have case study material to bring with you.
We hope that this course may:
-
give an understanding of the process of supervision as a growth experience
-
enable you to use periods of individual or peer supervision more effectively
-
enhance your capacity for self-supervision
-
help you develop and refine the contemplative gaze which is at the heart of both spiritual direction and supervision
-
encourage and equip those who feel drawn to become supervisors.
