Course Summary
To date practitioners providing clinical supervision have done so on the basis of their own commitment to their personal psychoanalysis, clinical experience and peer recognition of suitability. With the emergence in our culture of expectation of formal regulation of qualifications professional bodies within the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP) have introduced the requirement that clinical supervisors on psychotherapy training programmes are required to have a formal qualification in supervision.
