Module 8

Supervision & Practitioner Integration

Introduction

In this culminating Cycle 2 module, students step fully into the role of practitioner—facilitating real sessions under close supervision, honing their ethical discernment, and beginning to articulate their unique facilitator identity and contribution.

Learning Objectives

By the end of Module 8, students will be able to:

Lead live facilitation sessions with clients or peers under faculty supervision.

Give and receive constructive, trauma-informed feedback.

Identify and reflect on personal ethical edges, challenges, and blind spots.

Distill core elements of their emerging facilitator style and voice.

Demonstrate readiness to assist in larger retreat or therapeutic containers with humility and maturity.

Core Topics

Practicum Facilitation

Students facilitate full sessions—incorporating IFS, somatic, and entheogenic integration tools—while faculty observe.

Feedback & Reflective Practice

Structured methods for offering and receiving feedback that balance encouragement, boundary-awareness, and skill refinement.

Ethical Edge Recognition

Identifying moments when personal triggers, transference, or scope-of-practice issues arise, and deploying self-supervision strategies.

Facilitator Identity & Contribution

Clarifying signature strengths, areas of expertise, and personal values that will shape each student’s distinct practice.

Integration Focus

Two complementary pathways of development and integration

Personal Process Focus

Students keep a Supervision Journal documenting each facilitation attempt, noting felt-sense responses, ethical dilemmas, and areas for growth. Daily reflection prompts—“What surprised me in my presence today?” and “Where did humility guide my choices?”—support continuous self-awareness and development.

Therapeutic Integration Focus

Evening integration circles center on weaving together real-time case learnings: debriefing session highlights, exploring nervous-system responses, and reinforcing mature, compassionate containment. Faculty modeling of co-regulation and boundary-setting provides live templates for professional presence.
