Clinical Supervision and Professional Reflection

As health professionals we are expected to be able to give our best all of the time. This can put enormous pressure on us to put to one side difficulties we're experiencing in our own lives and the emotional responses we have to our work with patients and family members. And, leaves little space for us to navigate challenging relationships with colleagues or organisational politics.


Clinical supervision sessions are an opportunity to take some time away from your busy day to day routines to reflect on the work that you're engaged in. A process of structured reflection will support you to explore the personal impacts of your work and identify strategies to manage these as well as possible. Supervision session will also help you to find opportunities to improve your practice, find ways to manage relationships with colleagues and organisations, and ensure you are actively learning from the challenges you face.


Since 2007 I have provided clinical supervision to:


  • staff specialists
  • palliative care registrars
  • nurses
  • allied health professionals
  • social workers and counsellors
  • social work students

TESTIMONIAL


"Nathan MacArthur does not disappoint. I have not attended a better presentation on this challenging subject matter in the last twenty years. His presentation style is open and engaging. His depth of knowledge in this field, borne of experience and study, is vast. Nathan delivers his narrative in a manner that is reflective, encouraging, considered and accessible. He is able to create genuine moments of poignancy whilst maintaining relevance to the clinical environment.  My head and heart were fully committed.  A valuable experience."

Theories and Techniques for Supporting People Who Are Grieving: An Introduction

Do you work with people experiencing grief following a bereavement?


Do you want to learn strategies and skills so that you can confidently support someone who is grieving?


In this live webinar I'm partnering with another specialist grief counsellor, Wendy Liu from The Session, to answer your questions.  Between us, we have over 30 years of experience in grief and bereavement counselling. We'll share with you some of the knowledge and skills we find most effective in our work with patients and clients.


In this session we discuss:

  • the impacts of grief (physical, cognitive, emotional, social, spiritual)
  • using theories of grief in practice
  • assessing and responding to needs and risks
  • creative ways to support someone who is grieving
  • counselling strategies for working with powerful emotions (e.g. guilt and anger)
  • self-care in the context of working with death, dying and grief


There is also a live question and answer session.


This session is suitable for counsellors, social workers, death doulas, nurses, doctors, chaplains, volunteers, mental health and allied health professionals who want to build their confidence in understanding and responding to people experiencing grief following a bereavement. Copies of the slides, a reference list and attendance certificates will be provided.

People who attended previous sessions said:


“You are both very knowledgeable and generous in sharing your knowledge, skills and experience”


“Concepts were explained very clearly. Your case examples were very interesting. The structure of the session flowed well. I learnt a lot.”


“The scope of content was excellent.”


“I liked that the explanations of theoretical models and common responses to grief were easy-to-understand” 

A recording of this webinar is available to watch now. The next live version of this webinar will take place in 2023. Please subscribe to receive updates about our live webinars.
