Health Psychology Supervision Services
Sasha Cain provides SCPS Consulting Supervision Services. She has 20 years of supervisory experience, is a Fellow of the British Psychological Society & a Registered Applied Psychology Practice Supervisor (RAPPS). She draws on her experiences of delivering HP practice, training & supervising staff in Statutory, Third Sector & Independent Practice.
Sasha currently supervises HPs in Employed settings & in Independent Practice. Working with so many HPs across a broad range of applied practice settings, she sees themes & identifies learning needs which feed into her work across supervisees. Read her recent article on addressing difference and discrimination in applied practice.
What is Supervision?
Many HPs have not received applied practice supervision post-qualification and often work in isolation from other HPs, so they may wonder what they will experience in HP supervision. It is a process of professional support and self-development which enables individual practitioners to formalise the integration of professional knowledge and competence into their practice under the oversight of an experienced HP, helping them to assume responsibility for their own practice and enhance the public protection and safety of care.
There is so much to gain in your practice from having access to an experienced Health Psychologist supervisor...

Supervisee's often choose to discuss their development to-date; considering their future goals and opportunities.

Having a chance to step back from your client work and identify what is working well.
