Recently Anne has set up virtual Supervision Groups for the Association for Coaching and initiated and led the virtual support network for Supervisors through Covid-19.
Her approach to Supervision is about creating a protected space to think and reflect. It offers a confidential framework within a collaborative working relationship in which the practice, tasks, process and challenges of the supervisee’s work can be explored. For her, Supervision is also about ensuring the best possible service to the client, a duty of care to self and ethical practice. It is not a ‘policing’ role, rather a trusting and collegial professional relationship.
