Family TherapyCourse Overview
The Family and Systemic Psychotherapy Supervision Course aims to provide a rigorous but flexible training programme, which fits the needs of course participants and the requirements of the Association of Family Therapy and Systemic Practice (AFT)’s Red Book on supervision training.
The training days will have a mixture of theory, application of theory to practice, skills development and presentation of trainees work. The emphasis is on supervision but it is intended that participants will gain skills as trainers and providers of professional consultation.
The course aims to train family and systemic psychotherapy supervisors who are able to;
- Supervise the clinical work of those people training for qualified family therapy status on an accredited course.
- Provide supervision to qualified family therapists as part of their continuing professional development (as described in UKCP registration criteria).
- Provide supervision of teams and staff working with families and networks or individuals wishing to work with a systemic orientation.
Time Requirements
In 40 of the supervision hours, the student supervisor would need to provide live supervision of family therapy (supervision in the room or behind a screen).
The pre and post session would be included in the 40 hours.
Of the 80 hours, at least 8 of these supervision sessions would be retrospective video supervision in which the student supervisor reviews part or all of a session with the acting therapist. The video hours would include time looking at and discussing the clip.
Entry Requirements
The Advanced Diploma in Systemic Supervision is aimed at those who want to go on and to train and supervise others. To be eligible to apply you need to have completed a qualifying training in Family Therapy and have consolidated that training.
