What previous participants valued about Youth Access Supervision training with this trainer:
“I found the course really useful, informative and thought provoking. Thank you.”
“Fantastic! Learned so much and given so much to think about.”
“All of it was useful but particularly the 7 eyed model of supervision – the questions, use of symbols. How to contract supervision.”
“The training helped me to learn not only about “supervision” but about myself – it helped clarify the things that were important to me. The more that I am in touch with myself the more I can be receptive and responsive to the needs of others.”
