Abstract

This is a description of eight members' experiences of the evolution of a critical psychotherapy supervision collective. It comprises not only psychological therapists from different modalities; but, also other ‘psy’ professions and service users. We report on our first year of monthly meetings which start with two members exploring an aspect of their clinical work receiving group supervision followed by a monthly exploration of a theme usually involving how we might think about responding to changes threatening the psychotherapeutic project. We then have a business meeting which also provides news and links with external events and then a reflective group.
