SARAH JULIET MORLEY & KAT SALISBURY | CREATIVE SUPERVISION

Using action methods within supervision can offer different perspectives on our work. When we work in action we use different parts of our mind to when we ‘talk about’. In creative supervision, sometimes people may:

• Show a moment from a session and ‘press pause’ in order to re-explore it. 
• Try out different possibilities – both realistic or not.        
• Watch themselves from an observer’s point of view. See what they notice, perhaps give themselves advice or support.        
• See how it feels to be their client. Notice what feels different about taking the role rather than talking about it.        
• Hear how they sound from the client’s role.       
• Try saying things that may not be being said in the therapy – either by the client.
