Why choose Narmi for your clinical supervision?
Supervision is a unique relationship you develop with your supervisor. It can facilitate an important aspect of your professional development. Supervision may help you to reflect and create self-awareness and confidence in your clinical work. Importantly, supervision is not therapy. During the process of clinical supervision, supervisees are expected to be accountable for their own clinical work, however can bring case studies into supervision to gain insights and perspective from their supervisor. Narmi thrives on building confident therapists, hence enjoys challenging her supervisees and recommending various readings of books and journal articles. During supervision, there are discussions around ethical and legal issues, self-care, and burn-out prevention. At times, she has group supervision to facilitate any relevant professional development training that maybe relevant to you. The supervisee-supervisor relationship is a safe, non-judgemental one which aids the ongoing development of a well-rounded supervisee. Supervision may be accessed on a regular basis (such as fortnightly or monthly) or on an ‘as needed’ basis.
