Supervision for the helping professions

Supervision as Critically reflective Practice

Coaching Supervision for coaches, supervisors and other helping professionals, leaders from all sectors, including education, and social change activists.

Nurturing change makers and purpose driven professionals seeking to influence and shape the future.

Social Justice Ecosystemic Supervision as Critically Reflective Practice

Charmaine provides a safe and challenging container for embodied critical reflection. The element of embodiment is essential given that we are so intimately entangled with the systems we are trying to change that intellect and consciousness alone are not sufficient to surface the aspects of life and being that require attention.

Coaching, mentoring, and Leadership are being called upon to evolve in order to help us meet the urgent human, more than human and non-human ecosystemic needs that have reached or exceeded their tipping point.

The global pandemic has cast a cold white light onto the systemic inequalities and injustices blighting and undermining the well-being of our young, our communities, our family life, relationships, and workplaces. Human well-being has never been more closely connected to the ways in which we are being led and governed, the ways in which we are misusing our place in the eco-system. As old certainties disintegrate and uncertainty, volatility and turbulent change become our new normal, what ideas, approaches, ways of being, collaborating, making meaning, and living and working with purpose do we need?

What role can coaches, mentors and leaders working across the caring professionals, in education, business, communities, charities, non-profits or our social services, play in shaping the future and building a legacy for our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren?

What vision, ideas, strategies, and approaches do we need to guide our actions and support our own wellbeing and creativity while we work in service of others?

What are we being called to serve and how best do we do this while keeping ourselves our teams, organisations, and relationships healthy?

Charmaine is offering a supervision service to coaches, mentors and leaders who feel these questions bubbling up in their hearts, bodies and minds.

Group Supervision

You will join a group of between six to eight coaches, or leaders in a reflective practice group that explores the work you do from a social change perspective.

Supervision Testimonials

Supervision with Charmaine has helped ground my process and myself as a coach... I'm most proud of how it's helped me support coachees from a BAME background in the NHS navigate the very challenging situations that they find themselves in. I am more able to distance myself and take a wider, more holistic view with some of these coachees who are in the thick of it, and find it very difficult to get perspective. I have felt more centred in the conversations I've had which has better enabled me to support them through some very tough situations. Our sessions have also been a space for me to question and interrogate my practice and how I want to show up in it.

Freelance Coach

Supervision with Charmaine has provided me with a reflective space where I can unpack everything and show my vulnerability. Showing my vulnerability is something that I consciously have to work at and I feel that my coaching supervision is a safe, non judgemental space for that. I have become more comfortable with being uncomfortable. I feel an increase in confidence. I think I have a tendency to overthink my role / actions, etc. and I am able to come away from our sessions with more balance....we have excellent rapport, we can smile or laugh, a calm, thoughtful & non-judgemental approach. I thoroughly enjoy and respect Charmaine's observations, probes, challenges and encouraging support.
