Do you deliver FBT in your practice? Feeling overwhelmed or need support with current cases? Our FBT Group Supervision will help you increase your competency and gain confidence in delivering effective family based therapy.
As facilitators we value creating a safe and containing holding space to build trust in our supervision group relationships. We invite group participants to collectively hold this safe space with us as we strongly believe this allows vulnerability, reflectiveness and ultimately authentic personal and professional growth. We encourage active participation and shared ownership of group topics, content and process. |
