Training Standards fr Certificatin (Revised April 2016): Internatinal Integrative Psychtherapy Trainer and Supervisr (CIIPTS) Internatinal Integrative Cunselling Trainer and Supervisr (CIICTS) APPENDIX GENERAL RULES AND POLICIES FOR SUPERVISION FOR IIPA PSYCHOTHERAPISTS; COUNSELLORS; SUPERVISORS AND TRAINERS Nte: This dcument is fr advice and infrmatin nly. Please refer t the relevant detailed requirements dcuments fr specific criteria fr IIPA Training and Certificatins. Supervisin is ne f the majr cre cncepts in IP Training and in IP Cntinuus Educatinal prcess in each f the certificatin levels. T be a Certified Integrative Psychtherapist/Cunsellr and a Certified Integrative Psychtherapist/Cunsellr Trainer r Supervisr invlves the cmmitment in a cntinuing prcess f self-develpment and grwth in terms f learning and wrking thrugh prfessinal and persnal issues, as well as develpment f persnal and prfessinal skills. This supervisin prcess als ensures that the Psychtherapist/Cunsellr is receiving supprt and maintaining a surce fr satisfying the relatinal needs that ccur fr each Psychtherapist/Cunsellr in the prcess f wrking as a real persn in an invlved and attuned Psychtherapy/Cunseling I. DIFFERENT STRUCTURES FOR SUPERVISION In the IP training prcess we cnsider three main supervisin prcesses: A. Individual Supervisin Setting In this setting, the prfessinal can ask t present and wrk thrugh cncerns, dubts r different needs that the Psychtherapist/Cunsellr may encunter in his/her wrk with clients. The Psychtherapist/Cunsellr can als wrk n awareness, meaning and pssibilities f transference and cunter-transference, that she r he is experiencing in clinical cases. The persn wh wants t becme a CIIPTS/CIICTS will need the recmmendatin f a Main Supervisr wh knws her/his main strengths and specific needs fr develpment and grwth. The supervisry prcess has t be attuned and respectful f the particular skills and characteristics f the supervisee, as well as f their training develpment level. The credit f this supervisin is cunted in terms f the number f hurs wrking with a Supervisr, wh must be a Certified Integrative Psychtherapy Supervisr. The number f required hurs is a minimum f 150 hurs f which a minimum f 80 hurs f supervisin with a CIIPTS r CIICTS, a minimum f 40 hurs must be attained with the candidate s principle Supervisr. The remaining hurs can be attained, either befre r during IP Training, using ther appraches. The IIPA Cmmissin fr Standards and Certificatin CSC- 11
Training Standards fr Certificatin (Revised April 2016): Internatinal Integrative Psychtherapy Trainer and Supervisr (CIIPTS) Internatinal Integrative Cunselling Trainer and Supervisr (CIICTS) B. Individual Supervisin in a Grup Setting In this setting, the prfessinal can ask t present and wrk thrugh cncerns, dubts r different needs that the Psychtherapist/Cunsellr may encunter in his/her wrk with clients. The Psychtherapist/Cunsellr can als wrk n awareness, meaning and pssibilities f transference and cunter-transference prcesses, that she r he is experiencing in clinical cases. The number f hurs t certify in an individual Supervisin in a grup setting is the exact amunt f time that the supervisee is presenting her/his casewrk plus fr each day f a 6 hurs Training/Supervisin grup we accredit. i. One hur if the trainee presents a persnal case plus One hur f the grup hurs if maximum f 12 participants r 1/3 rd if the grups is 12 24 participants. ii. The Supervisr can accredit an extra hur f supervisin t a participant when he r she has given particularly imprtant feedback and cntributin t thers participant in this grup. C. Relatinal Grup Supervisin Setting The supervisin setting thrugh a Relatinal Grup Prcess invlves tw types f supervisin tgether in the same frmat. i. Individual presentatins frm each f the members f the grup abut her/his case (difficulties, dubts, therapeutic errrs etc ). ii. Supervisin as a relatinal therapeutic grup. That s it, each grup member must cmmit t give cntinuus specific feedback t the Psychtherapist/Cunsellr that presents a case, t relevant questins related t IP Cncepts, thery and thery f methds that the supervisee is applying and presenting in the case presentatin. Each grup member is als cmmitted t give theretical examples f her/his wn way f ptentially wrking with the client that the ther clleague is presenting, and remain attuned t the presentatin and respectful f the presenter. In this setting the Supervisr has tw respnsibilities: i. T prvide a custmary supervisin prcess fr each f the attendees (equal t an individual supervisin in a grup setting). ii. T wrk with grup dynamics in rder t: a. Ensure there is equal participatin fr all the supervisees (and in the tw task described abve). b. T maintain the grup in terms f stimulus, mtivatins and a relatinal prcess between members. c. T pay particular attentin f the ptential parallel prcesses that may appear mre ften in this frmat the wrk thrugh them. The IIPA Cmmissin fr Standards and Certificatin CSC- 12
Training Standards fr Certificatin (Revised April 2016): Internatinal Integrative Psychtherapy Trainer and Supervisr (CIIPTS) Internatinal Integrative Cunselling Trainer and Supervisr (CIICTS) Prcesses f transference and cunter-transference will ccur in multiple levels, therefre, transference is ne f the majr pints fcus fr the Supervisr, as well as t apprpriate applicatins f thery. This kind f supervisin may include thery f methds, fr example psychdrama, empty chair experiment, rle-playing etc., the Supervisr may find this is useful fr the prcess. This supervisin setting requires an nging time-structure that allws each f the members in the grup t have time t resent her/his case, as well as t guarantee that each persn in the grup has time enugh t d this inter-supervisry prcess. All the members in this grup cmmit and undertake being aware f the strengths and needs f each member, tgether with giving mutual supprt. In this setting there are many simultaneus levels f prcess invlved due t the relatinal grup prcess f supervisin. As a cnsequence all the hurs devted t this kind f supervisin can be certified, recgnizing the value f the direct supervisin as well as the learning prcess that cmes with the grup presentatin frm ther members in the grup (explicit and implicit learning). The Supervisr will write the reprt fr the Certificatin prcess, having in mind all the prcesses and feedback cming frm this type f supervisin grup. COMPLEMENTARY PATHS IN THE SUPERVISORY PROCESS A. Self Reflective Supervisin Temprarily the Psychtherapist/Cunsellr r Trainer & Supervisr, may develp a reasnable self awareness and maintain an nging prcess wrking as an Integrative Psychtherapist/Cunsellr thrugh reflectin, writing case studies and listening (r transcribing) therapeutic sessins. Keeping a Learning Jurnal, fcusing attentin n her/his prcess f grwth abut the majr insights gained in her/his wn therapy and supervisin and is a creative persnal and prfessinal cmmitment. A Learning Jurnal can include ther infrmatin related t the Certificatin prcess, if she/he wants t share this as a dcument fr her/his persnal reasns, this shuld be dne thrugh her/his main Supervisr wh will use the infrmatin in the endrsement letter fr the certificatin prcess. Because the frmal supervisin prcess requires the direct participatin f a Supervisr, these training hurs cannt be certified. B. Peer Supervisin Grup This is an infrmal self-rganized grup f Psychtherapists/Cunsellrs, n the basis f mutuality, equality, respect and cmmitment t learning, wh meet t discuss tgether clinical cases and thery. The respnsibility f the welfare f the grup and its members is a shared cmmitment by the grup members. The IIPA Cmmissin fr Standards and Certificatin CSC- 13
Training Standards fr Certificatin (Revised April 2016): Internatinal Integrative Psychtherapy Trainer and Supervisr (CIIPTS) Internatinal Integrative Cunselling Trainer and Supervisr (CIICTS) A peer grup can be superb way f cmplementing the Supervisry prcess but cannt substitute regular individual r grup supervisin. It can ffer an easy way fr many candidates t benefit frm the presence, inquiry and stimulus frm ther clleagues. As abve, since the frmal supervisin prcess requires the direct participatin f a Supervisr, these self-managed training hurs cannt be certified. II. TRAINERS & SUPERVISORS Certified Trainers and Supervisrs, t the greatest extent, are invlved and dedicated Integrative Psychtherapist/Cunsellrs in their wn prcess f imprving themselves, their theries and thery f methds. The ttal number f hurs required when applying t becme a Certified Trainer & Supervisr is a minimum f 200 hurs with a Certified Supervisr & Trainer. After the prcess f Certificatin she r he accepts the cmmitment t cntinue learning and supervising by her/his wn nging resurces f Supervisin and Training, and/r attending wrkshps, seminars etc., that the IIPA r prfessinal IP Assciatins may rganize regularly in the perid f ur biennial cnference. These hurs shuld be specifically abut supervising; teaching seminars and supervisry skills, taking int accunt psychtherapeutic and relatinal apprach and cnceptualizatin f teaching, supervisin and psychtherapy/cunselling. III. C.S.C. COMMISSION OF STANDARDS AND CERTIFICATION The Cmmissin f Standards and Certificatin has the gal f revising and imprving the Certificatin prcesses fr Integrative Psychtherapists/Cunsellrs whatever the level f develpment and specific needs f the prfessinal in her/his therapeutic apprach, methds and persnal integratin thrugh the Certificatin prcess. The main gal is t ffer supprt t the Assciatin members in the Certificatin prcess t extend, actualize and beneficial. In rder t ensure this prcess is well regulated and beneficial, the Cmmissin may request a cnsultatin frm mre advanced members in ur IIPA cmmunity in rder t receive external feedback n the CSC s undertakings. The quality f CSC s undertakings will be prtected by a Chair rtatin every 4 years and fr a rtatin f the Cmmissin s members, maintain at least ne-persn frm each cuntry, hwever, nt all the members will be substituted simultaneusly. IV. GENERAL OBSERVATONS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND COMMENTS Sme specificatins and cmments fr structuring Supervisin: i. Generally, with regard t Training supervisin, it is pssible t chse the Supervisr in private practice, hwever this may nt always be pssible when wrking in Natinal Institutes.

It is pssible t have multiple and simultaneus Supervisrs in a grup, wrking in parallel; this shuld nt be cunted as multiple supervised hurs by supervisees. iii. Often there are different levels f Training supervisees in a Training supervisin grup, it is acceptable t have a mixture f different levels. iv. Supervisin f tw c-psychtherapists/cunsellrs is acceptable. v. Supervisin f tw, if mre than tw this wuld fall int the categry f a grup. vi.
