Thanks so much @laurenresonate.bsky.social for your recommendation of our book! We hope that everyone can benefit from the insights it provides into #supervision in its many forms too.
This month I’m looking forward to running two study days:
- support, supervision and self care
- working with people with CCD across the pathway.
Email sltstudydays@gmail.com to book your place.

Thrilled to see #SupervisioninSpeechandLanguageTherapy get a 5 star review in the Spring 2025 RCSLT Bulletin magazine! Thank you Susan McCool: “This valuable resource facilitates much-needed conversation for the profession about the nature & value of #supervision”
NEW blog by Sally Robbins reflecting on the learning taken forward after reading two chapters in #SupervisioninSpeechandLanguageTherapy on group supervision practice: intandem.co.uk/supervision-... Wonderful to see the book stimulating reflection across allied health & care professions
What a joy to run a #personalconstructpsychology webinar on #Selfcare & #supervision to such a receptive & reflective audience. Themes: what is selfcare/supervision & their contrasts, how can & do we prioritise ourselves, initial steps to change practice, prioritising connections
What a joy it was to revisit my old #cultureclub group this week at The Park Hotel, Teddington for their Christmas 🎄 coffee and mince pies! Thanks to @katyjslt.bsky.social who has been running the group brilliantly over the last year. Still as random and joyful as ever! Here’s to 2025!!
