CERTIFICATE IN CREATIVE SUPERVISION 2012-2013
Overview
This popular person-centred creative supervision of counselling certificate training course, run by the Jenny Biancardi Consultancy, has been running successfully for sixteen years. It is accredited by the BPA, who are organisational members of the UKCP.
- "Jenny Biancardi created a warm and supportive environment in which great learning and personal insight took place. She provided a welcome balance of theory and experiential activities to build my knowledge and practice as a supervisor... The course was inspiring, thought-provoking, affirming and fun! I would recommend this course to anyone, as it is a course I go back to in my mind and draw from regularly."
- Sarah Wortley, Senior Counsellor,
Hull College Counselling Service
The course is designed to train supervisors from a variety of backgrounds. It is suitable for those who wish to develop supervision skills, and for those who are already supervisors and who want to work in more creative and expressive ways, including with therapists and counsellors who may use a model of counselling different to their own.
Participants frequently come from outside the North East of England, including from the rest of England and from Scotland.
