ACCREDITED SUPERVISORS

OneSpirit provides supervision for our ministers and students. Supervision is a recurring, mutually agreed upon process designed to support ministers and students in being more effective in their ministry and/or practice with their clients.

It acts as a catalyst for innovation and creativity, empowering professionals to tap into their potential while recognising their limits. Not only does it provide a platform for professional development, but it also fosters a sense of community, ensuring that work never becomes a solitary journey.

Through good supervision, spiritual counsellors, ministers, and professionals can develop and deepen their practice – from practical, and professional levels to profound insights, understanding, and self-awareness.

OneSpirit Accredited Supervisors Group: We remain dedicated to promoting the significance of supervision. This manifests in the broad practice of supervision within the organisation and inclusion in our training programs. We maintain a group of experienced supervisors who uphold the standards required for our accredited supervisors’ group.

Offering holistic counselling & therapy, combining evidence-based practice w/holistic tools such as mindfulness, meditation, somatic experiencing, & self-compassion for personal and spiritual growth.

Through my own personal experience of having supervision, I know how essential it is. Supervision provides a safe moment in time where you can explore anything that is bothering you, causing stress or a lack of motivation in any aspect of your work or professional life. Personal issues come into the arena as well and may be hindering how you turn up in the world. Knowing I can take any issues I may be grappling with, to my supervision, to be explored without judgment allows me to be fully present and to find the joy in what I do.

Supervision provides a sacred space where healing, understanding and transformation can begin through reflecting on the challenges and joys of life.

This being human is sometimes a really tough gig! Through my personal ministry, I find my way through to living my life with dignity, beauty and compassion. I offer dance as a spiritual practice, and ceremony and individual sessions. I am also passionately committed to Conflict Resolution and offer sacred space to help people find good ways to resolve conflict.

– OneSpirit Minister & Supervisor, Catherine Wright

My experience of supervision as a client has been transformational, educational, at times thrilling and mind and heart-opening, challenging – and simply game-changing for my own work practice and self and professional development.

“Let the beauty you love be what you do. There are a hundred ways to kneel and kiss the ground.”
-Rumi

Supervision is a deeply beautiful and essential aspect of our work exploring the mysteries of the Divine. It offers a safe space in which we are fully witnessed, encouraged, blessed and lovingly challenged to keep our connection to Spirit ‘clean and true’. This supports us to serve others – in whatever capacity that may be – from the deepest place of integrity and embodied awareness.

– OneSpirit Minister & Supervisor, Shianna Ravenlaw

I have been in supervision since 1994 when I was training as a homoeopath. It would not occur to me, 30 years on, to work without the sounding board and clarity of a supervisor alongside me, to ensure that I am safe, ethical, clear, and accompanied. In supervision, we can share our concerns and our mistakes, without fear of judgement. We are less lonely/isolated in our work, we have a place to work with our ‘blindspots’, and we have someone who cares and will celebrate with us.

– OneSpirit Minister & Supervisor, Nickie Aven

I am a complete advocate for the role of supervision in a minister’s life as it provides a safe and sacred space to reflect, process the impact and learn from the “live” work of a minister.

– OneSpirit Minister & Supervisor, John F. Doherty

I have personally experienced the profound difference that high-quality supervision can make when I’ve felt stuck, conflicted, and pushed to my limits. These experiences of supervision as sacred work have allowed me to be more present with my clients, in deeper relationships with my co-workers and more alive to the world. They led me to want to explore including supervision among the services I offer.

– OneSpirit Minister & Supervisor, Tim Ralphs

I love to be in a safe and sacred space with others exploring our connection to Spirit and growing in awareness and love, as well as honing our professional skills.
