FOR INDIVIDUAL OR GROUPS
Clinical supervision is a structured process where, such as therapists or social workers, receive guidance and support from a more experienced supervisor This practice is designed to enhance the quality of care provided to clients, ensuring that practitioners maintain ethical standards and professional development. Clinical supervision is essential for new practitioners seeking to refine their skills, as well as seasoned professionals aiming to reflect on their practice and improve their effectiveness. Overall, it serves as a vital component in maintaining the integrity and quality of clinical services.
Regular clinical group supervision for employees is a proven method of ensuring healthy work practices, building relationship and trust, whilst reducing work related stress, mitigating poor staff engagement and decreasing staff turn over.

Commonly clinical supervision is engaged in once a month and in addition, when there is a sudden
need. An hour of clinical supervision for an individual or ninety minutes for a group session allows
persons to seek answers, reflect, build relationship and learn to improve work practices and workplace issues while being supported in a professional, therapeutic relationship.
Commonly in group supervision each member takes responsibility for bringing a topic to explore for
each session.
