What people say

“It has been a thoroughly worthwhile experience: a chance to learn from expert Jungian practitioners, accompanied by a diverse group of people whose warmth and engagement have helped make this a true learning opportunity. All in a wonderful setting surrounded by books. What more could I ask?”

“I thoroughly enjoyed the supervision course, especially the format of having a presentation by different SAP analysts with special interests. The opportunity to discuss the presentation within small groups afterwards was extremely valuable and gave the opportunity to grapple with questions raised.
The mix of trainees was stimulating and there was a huge amount of knowledge and experience on offer.
Especially good was the input of the staff members running the seminars and more of their own work would have been welcome. I liked the learning through listening and discussion rather than too much in the way of tasks, but this may be a personal preference.”

“Stimulating programme that evoked new thoughts and wonderings about current work and personal experiences. I found the facilitators rigorous in their thinking.”

“The supervision of the case material in the afternoon is invaluable. And the speaker's honest and thought provoking presentation was illuminating. Thank you.”

“Presentation was rich in content and accessible in style of delivery. Later discussion of case material was open, and creative thinking encouraged.”

“Stimulating and interesting talks. Afternoon supervision personally very helpful, ……….. (with the very small group) tended to be more like individual supervision.”
