EFT Supervision and Mentoring

Supervision and mentoring is an important part of Continual Professional Development (CPD) and there are specific AAMET guidelines in this regard for all EFT Practitioners and students.

As an AAMET Accredited Certified EFT Master Trainer, I am pleased to support Level 2 and 3 EFT practitioners and students - whether or not you have trained with me - through on-going EFT supervision and mentoring.

Whether working with me individually or in a group setting, my aim will be to act as a supportive guide for your learning, reflection and development. Working in a group environment will enable you to share your experiences with others and benefit from their input to help you to reflect on your own client work. Individual sessions might be preferred if you have high client load and/ or you wish to discuss a particular case in a deeper way.

I offer:

Group* Supervision mornings (3 hours) in north London once every two months
Group* Skype sessions, every two months on a Tuesday evening
One-to-one sessions, face-to-face in north London or via Skype
 * Group sizes are limited to 8 participants



Group Supervision mornings in north London (maximum 8 participants)

Available dates -  

2017: Friday mornings - 28 April (fully booked), 30 June, 15 September, 8 December



Times: 10.00am - 1.00pm

Fee: £60 (If paying by Paypal, please also send me an email telling which date you are booking for)

PayPal – The safer, easier way to pay online. 
Venue: Finchley Central (Northern Line tube station)

EFT Supervision and mentoring sessions within a group environment provides support and the opportunity for learning from fellow practitioners and students. As you will require a minimum of 6 hours of supervision in order to gain EFT certification and/ or annually once you are qualified, these 3 hour morning sessions will provide you with 50% of the required quota.

During the sessions we will share:

Case studies, reflecting on different approaches to improve results
Discuss challenging cases
Introduce new and creative ways of working
Watch demonstrations
Discuss latest developments in the field

One-to-one sessions

These sessions are available face-to-face or via Skype, during day times Monday to Friday. One-to-one sessions will be beneficial for you if you would like to discuss a particular case in detail and/ or you have a high case load and would like the closer support. These sessions therefore can focus on both your client work as well as your own needs as a therapist or practitioner.

Please email to arrange a date and time.

Fee: £50 per hour

AAMET Guidelines for CPD and Supervision - Level 2 and Level 3 Practitioners and students

The following CPD and Supervision guidelines apply to all AAMET Accredited and/or Certified Practitioners/ Advanced Practitioners. EFT students who have attended a Level 2 training course will also need to undertake supervision.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD)

CPD is not meant as extra work or expense, but rather the normal commitment made by conscientious practitioners to develop personally and professionally, and keep up to date with developments in the field. When working with others it is also strongly encouraged for a practitioner/ therapist to work on clearing their own issues, which may otherwise interfere with their client work.

Level 2 and Advanced EFT Practitioners are required to accumulate a minimum of 30 hours CPD per year. Here are some examples of activities that count towards CPD:

Carrying out ANY personal or professional development activity that could reasonably be expected to add to a practitioner's competency, including:

Attending or delivering ANY professional training (EFT oriented or otherwise) that could reasonably be expected to add to a practitioner's competency
Repeating training and/or preparing for further professional accreditation
Writing up and reflecting on the Practitioner’s own case studies and/or theory and philosophy of practice
Staying up to date with developments in EFT and/or AAMET
Reading relevant books and newsletters
Regular use of the Personal Peace Procedure and other forms of personal therapy, with or without the help of others
Participating in EFT discussion groups or teleconferences
Establishing a practice and/or documenting the integration of EFT into an existing practice
Carrying out ANY activity that furthers the interests of the EFT community and/or AAMET, including:

Taking EFT into the community
Developing a specific application of EFT (e.g. for sports or business)
Translating EFT material into another language
Developing a new EFT product/approach with wide application
Carrying out and publishing a relevant research project
Writing and publishing or contributing to a relevant book, e-book or newsletter
Writing up the achievement of a major life ambition with EFT
Moderating EFT tapping or discussion groups or teleconferences etc etc
Under these Guidelines, all AAMET Practitioners (which includes Levels 2, 3 and AAMET Master Trainers and Master Trainers of Trainers) are required to commit to and acquire at least 30 hours of CPD per year in order to maintain their listing on the AAMET Practitioner register. In practice, many Practitioners accumulate substantially more than this. The hours should ideally be balanced across several CPD categories, and include a reasonable proportion of relevant professional training (either as attendee or as the Trainer delivering the training) as described above.

All the CPDs gained must be recorded, together with attendance certificates and/or receipts as appropriate, and retained as evidence for at least 5 years in case asked for by the AAMET and/or GRCCT.

Supervision

Under these Guidelines, Practitioners (including Master Trainers and Master Trainers of Trainers) who are seeing clients one-to-one or in groups (or training groups) are required to have an absolute minimum of at least six hours supervision each year, although most professional practising practitioners will want to do more.

The supervision, which can be taken individually or in groups, must be formally recorded, together with any attendance certificates and/or receipts as appropriate, and retained as evidence for at least 5 years in case this may be asked for by the AAMET and/or GRCCT.

Students who are working towards qualification at Level 2 are also required to undertake a minimum of 6 hours supervision before they can qualify as a certified/ Accredited EFT Practitioner.

In line with the importance of practitioner support and development, it is now a requirement for all AAMET-registered practitioners (from Level 2 upwards) to undertake supervision in order to maintain their practitioner status. If this applies to you then you will need a minimum of 6 individual or group supervision hours per year (group size not to exceed 8 participants). If you have a high case load or work with serious issues it would be appropriate to increase the amount of supervision you undertake.
