Clinical Supervision for Counsellors | Fields of Hope Counselling

Is This For You?

You might be newly qualified, carrying the weight of your first clients and wondering if you're getting it right. You might be experienced, but working alone — without a space to think out loud, question your blind spots, or simply be witnessed in the work. You might be looking for someone who understands the particular complexity of working with trauma, grief, faith, or cross-cultural clients. Or you might just know that good supervision isn't a box to tick.

The Supervision Approach

Supervision at Fields of Hope Counselling draws on two complementary frameworks — one giving structure, the other giving flexibility.

The RISE UP Model

R
Review — following up on prior sessions, risk, and client progress
I
Information — the administrative and record-keeping foundations of ethical practice
S
Support — the counselling skills you're bringing to your own clients
E
Education — goal-setting, professional development, and clinical rationale
U
Self-Care — because a depleted counsellor can't sustain good practice
P
Private Practice & Business Building — the often-overlooked commercial side of a sustainable career

The Six Supervisory Spaces

Layered onto this is Hewson and Carroll's model of the six supervisory spaces — Reflective, Directive, Evaluative, Passive, Restorative, and Active. Rather than applying a single style regardless of what's needed, this model allows supervision to move fluidly between modes — matching how support is given to what the moment actually calls for.

Individual vs Group Supervision

Individual Supervision

Depth and privacy — the space for the case that feels too exposing to bring to peers, at the pace that suits your specific caseload.
