My life and professional experience, discoveries and mistakes, the ability to survive in uncertainty and powerlessness and find my own way out in difficult life situations, interest in people and meeting the special world of each of them and much more that I am filled with, allow me to work with children, teenagers, couples and families.
Supervision is a professional form of support and development for the therapist, during which they discuss their work with a more experienced colleague (a supervisor) in order to gain a deeper understanding of the processes taking place in interaction with clients.
“Supervision is like a mirror and a compass for the therapist.”
It helps to “check yourself” and notice what may remain outside of awareness in daily practice.
What does the therapist gain from supervision?
- Professional support
- The opportunity to discuss complex cases with a neutral and experienced specialist,
- Reduced doubts and anxiety about “whether I’m working correctly.”
2. Improvement of therapy quality
- Deeper analysis of therapeutic processes,
- New ideas, techniques, and interventions.
3. Development of self-reflection skills
- Awareness of one’s own reactions, emotions, and projections in work,
- Better understanding of professional boundaries.
4. Protection from burnout
- The ability to “unload” emotionally difficult moments without harming the client,
- Increased self-confidence as a specialist.
5. Ethical check
- Support for ethical standards (especially important in complex or borderline cases).
