Supervision and Team Development

Clinical Supervision & Staff Support

Many individuals and teams in fields such as psychotherapy, social care, mental health and criminal justice find benefit in having the opportunity to reflect on and process their work in a safe and containing atmosphere. This has many benefits, including more effective practice, higher job satisfaction and decreased staff burn-out.

To provide for this need, BIP offers clinical supervision and staff support both to teams and individuals. Sessions can be arranged at a time to suit you and can take place on your premises or at an independent location.

Staff Training & Team Development

Staff training can be custom-tailored to the needs of your team or agency, and can be on a wide range of themes, including:

• Psychodrama and sociodrama.
• Experiential groupwork, including the use of active, experiential learning techniques.
• Role play (includes the seven types of role play and how to use them for different purposes).
• Attachment theory and attachment-based therapeutic interviewing with adults.
• Cognitive-behavioural groupwork.
• Principles of groupwork.
• Offender rehabilitation, including motivational interviewing and relapse prevention in the context of working with addictions, violence and sexual offending.
• Working with reluctant participants and managing difficult group dynamics.
• Working with denial (e.g. denial of offending behaviour).
• Applied drama and interactive learning methods.
• Supervision skills.

Team development workshops can incorporate training on the issues listed above and will also include exercises and processes that enhance team functioning, satisfaction and goal setting.

The staff training and team development work can occur at your place of work or at an independent venue and can be arranged at a time to suit your team.
