On Sunday January 21, 2024, the first five-day workshop of the Gestalt Foundation's two-year international training program for Supervisors was completed, held at the offices of our center, Epirou 37, 173 41, in Ag Dimitrios, from Wednesday January 17 to Sunday January 21, 2024.

The topic developed by the trainers Liv Estrup, Balliou Despina and Katja Hatzilakou was entitled "Supervision: A collective effort".

Referring to the essence of supervision as a process in which supervisor and therapist work together and learn about the client, the therapeutic process and themselves, the trainers presented Liv Estrup's model of multiple lenses (supervision wheel), from which trainee supervisors came to contact and began to explore both what was happening in the therapeutic process as well as in the supervision process. They then elaborated and experimented with interventions in the supervision process.

Included were topics such as: interview, contract, stages of supervision, support, challenge, potential, creativity, etc.

The closing of the workshop, on Sunday, was covered by the visit and the, by all accounts, excellent tour of the participants by tour guide Tzema Economopoulou at the Acropolis Museum!
