As a provisional psychologist, you’ve read about and studied numerous “theoretical orientations” and likely have two or three favorites. You should also have had opportunities to learn about and practice “facilitative skills.” Although it covers many areas, supervision for a provisional psychologist tends to focus on becoming proficient in bringing theory and skills together.
According to Scott Miller and others in “The Cycle of Excellence,” we should practice those skills that lead to better outcomes. These skills are referred to as “facilitative skills” and include creating a working alliance with warmth, empathy, emotional expression, verbal fluency, hopefulness, persuasiveness, and a problem/solution focus.

We’ve been providing our present clients with Zoom sessions & Coaching by Phone throughout the COVID-19 pandemic with great success. 100% of ALL appointments are now virtual; however, we will open up a small number of in-person sessions when possible. For now, virtual sessions are the responsible choice, convenient and confidential.
We normally provide in-person sessions at all of our locations. Sanitisation and proper distancing procedures are in place for your safety and comfort. Wearing a mask is mandatory in reception and hallway areas, but NOT in our private offices.

Consider taking a more deliberately responsible and psychologically aimed leadership approach with all your relationships. Alternatively, check out our “Performance Coaching.”
A great leader does not force herself on others. Her first step was to learn about others’ and her most effective skills, then practice them daily. Various forms of feedback informed her as to how successful she was being. Next, she explored her most important values, which were already unconsciously influencing all her decisions and important actions.
Refine your style and influence others through an elegant use of soft skills rather than attempting to force, manipulate, and control. People will come to admire you for your efforts. Leadership is about influence, responsibility, and this leads to collaboration. Together, we function like a family or a strong team. We collaborate, support, and challenge each other, and we will do the same for you. We learn, grow, improve, and evolve, as individuals, as a family, and as a team. Engage our professional coaching, of course, and make your first appointment with us, today.
