Details of workshop
Online Supervision v. Supervision Online
The crucial role of an effective online supervisor
Unless you have experienced online supervision you are unlikely to be aware that it is quite different to the usual supervision we receive.
Pip will explain the difference between online supervision and supervision online and will focus on the key ingredients to consider: assessment, risk and safeguarding as one constellation of areas of expertise that are distinct, and international jurisdiction, legal issues and cross-border working as a second district area of expertise.
These are the bread and butter of so many online supervision sessions, even amongst qualified and experienced online therapists, simply because there is so much to consider. Pip will also introduce her specialist online supervision model. The day will be based in case materials for you to draw on and give you time to question and discuss.
Some information about Pip as an Online Supervisor
I have worked as a qualified online supervisor since 2016. This is specialist supervision delivered online to therapists themselves delivering their therapy online. My supervisees are located all over the world.
Because of my specialist training in online supervision I know and am experienced in working with the issues that regularly come up when working cross-border, jurisdiction issues, cultural and international issues and the extended levels of risk assessment and safeguarding that we need to consider.
I work both with individual supervisees and groups of up to four people. Working with groups is so rewarding for everyone as we all benefit from the diversity of training modalities (anything from CBT right through to psychoanalytic) and experience of the members of the group.
From feedback my supervision is both rewarding and enriching, leading to better outcomes for clients - obviously one of the aims of supervision, though not the only one.
I am an ACTO Level 3 Senior Professional Member and a qualified online supervisor offering online supervision and an Honorary Fellow of ACTO.
I am the former Founder and Principal of The Academy for Online Therapy.
Although not teaching full time any more I provide training in online therapy and online supervision all over the world, as well as writing chapters and articles on these subjects. I am regularly asked to advise startups in online therapy and have recently served as Clinical Director for Mental Health for two companies.
