Coaching supervision is not about managing, directing, or telling coaches how to coach. Rather, it is about empowering the coach to develop a “Super Vision” of how their work is going with their clients. This is achieved by a coach and qualified coach supervisor working in partnership to create a safe, reflective space where true exploration can occur.
By participating in coaching supervision, coaches can enhance their reflective practices, making them more effective coaches by increasing self-awareness which leads to an increase in confidence, objectivity, resourcefulness, and capability.
Furthermore, coaches who are credentialed through the ICF can claim up to 10 hours of Coaching Supervision as Core Competency CCEUs.
Supervision explores many aspects including:
- Exploring specific challenges with clients
- Exploring professional and ethical practice challenges
- Deepening use and understanding of tools, models, and theories
- Creating awareness around blind spots
- Revealing parallel processes and other psychological interferences
- Supporting the well-being of the coach
- Systemic exploration of issues and challenges
The three main coaching professional bodies (ICF, EMCC, and AC) recognize supervision and reflective practice as essential aspects of coaching. All three recommend or mandate supervision for their members.

Embark on a Collective Journey Group Supervision
At Reflective Coach, our Group Supervision sessions are like joining a crew of fellow explorers, each on their unique yet interconnected coaching odyssey. We offer two distinct groups, tailored to different stages of your coaching journey:
Liftoff Launchpad: This group is designed for coaches in the early stages of their career, providing a supportive space for those with less than 100 hours of client experience. It’s the perfect setting for sharing experiences, learning from peers, and gaining confidence as you navigate the initial phases of your coaching practice.
Cosmic Explorers: Aimed at more experienced coaches, this group focuses on deeper exploration, encountering new situations, and leveraging collective wisdom. It’s ideal for seasoned coaches looking to expand their horizons and reflect on their diverse experiences in the field.
Each group is scheduled for six sessions per year, with dates planned one year in advance to ensure consistency and forward planning. Each session is 2 hours/2.5 hours long (depending on the group) and takes place via Zoom. We ask for a minimum commitment to attend at least four sessions annually, fostering a continuous and cohesive group dynamic.
To maintain an intimate and focused environment, group sizes are limited to a maximum of six coaches. This ensures personalised attention and meaningful interaction within each session. You’re welcome to join a group at any stage throughout the year, subject to availability, allowing flexibility in your professional development journey.
If you would like to consider joining a group, please arrange a chemistry call with Stephen to discuss further.
