Thrive & Revive in Supervision
Workshop Details & Registration
A one-day program for supervisors who want to bring genuine well-being practice into their supervision
Our work is very meaningful, yet the emotional wear and tear is high and takes a toll.
Well-being conversations in supervision tend to occur in moments of crisis or reactivity, rather then in a proactive way. The conditions that lead to burnout, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue and moral injury are well understood. The evidence for addressing these within supervision is compelling.
What has been missing is a structured, skills-based program that brings this evidence into supervision practice in a directly applicable way, without supervision becoming an employee assistance program or personal therapy.
The Thrive and Revive program addresses this gap. It equips participants with the knowledge, frameworks and practical skills to make professional well-being a genuine and valued strand of supervision. Rather than a one-off conversation, practitioner well-being becomes an ongoing, purposeful dimension of supervisory practice.
*This program compliments Michelle's professional supervision and advanced supervision programs but neither are required for attendance.

1. The Case for Well-being in Supervision
This module explores the costs to practitioners, clients and organisations when professional wellbeing is ignored.
2. Barriers to Exploring Well-being in Supervision
Before supervisors can support well-being in supervision, they need to understand what gets in the way, both for supervisees seeking to thrive sustainably, and for raising wellbeing within supervision itself.
3. Framing Well-being Within Supervision
This module provides a practical framework for how supervision can and does support professional sustainability.
4. Addressing Risk Factors
This module addresses the specific occupational risks that are most prevalent in our sector, and explores how supervision can identify, name, and actively respond to them.
5. Building Protective Factors
Sustainable practice is built, not just preserved. This module focuses on the proactive side of professional wellbeing, equipping supervisors with a practical framework for helping supervisees cultivate the foundations that protect against depletion over time. Rather than waiting for risk factors to take hold, supervisors learn how to strengthen the capacities and practices that help practitioners thrive, and how to make that a consistent and purposeful strand of supervision.
