Parenting Coordinator Supervision

Join other qualified parenting coordinators for an online group supervision process that will support you as a practitioner to increase your confidence and skills to provide more effectives services to clients.

This specialised, online Group Supervision will be held every 3 months. Limited to 8 participants per group, this group is designed for qualified parenting coordinators who want to reflect on their professional interactions with clients and learn from colleagues’ parenting coordination experiences.

As drop-in sessions, the supervision is designed to provide support around both urgent matters as well as ongoing issues that parenting coordinators are experiencing in their work. Group members can choose to attend one, multiple or the whole series of sessions, depending on their needs and challenges.
