About the Workshop:

Compassion-focused therapy (CFT) is a multi-modal psychotherapy, initially developed to work with shame and self-criticism.  CFT involves the development of inter-personal and intra-personal compassion to engage with, and regulate, threat-based experiences and emotions.  This workshop involves the application of CFT to the process of psychotherapy supervision, exploring the potential benefits of cultivating compassion for both supervisor and supervisee. 

Key Learning Objectives:

• To understand the core principles of compassion-focused therapy and to apply these to the interpersonal process of supervision. 
• To formulate the common threats for both supervisee and supervisor.
• To apply compassion to your own clinical and supervisory practice (utilising experiential exercises). 
• To develop your own 'Internal Compassionate Supervisor' to support your clinical practice.

Who Should Attend:

Psychologists and psychotherapists working as supervisors.
