Supervision

Back to Glossary

What this means…

Supervision originated and developed as an integral part of the training process in psychoanalysis.

In more recent decades the importance of supervision for the experienced human relations practitioner has been acknowledged.

The British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) requires all its practitioner members to be in supervision regardless of their length of experience.

Counsellors work in organisations and as independent practitioners and are involved in the process and dynamics of our ever changing work places and society. Thus supervision needs to reflect the various and varying aspects of the work and life of counsellors.

Oasis believes in continuous reflection and development and that learning comes through the relationship and working together of people. It is in living and working through the issues and problems associated with human relation, in whatever context they arise, which leads to true growth and change.
