Supervision with Estelle Macdonald

I am both a Supervisor and an Examiner, certified by the International Society of Schema Therapy (ISST), in the following areas:

• Child and Adolescent Schema Therapy (CA-ST)
• Individual (Adult) Schema Therapy

I offer supervision in these areas to both individuals and in a group. For a candidate working towards ISST certification, I can offer either supervision or examination.

My online supervision group focuses on Schema Therapy, and creative ways of combining it with EMDR and sandtray work.

ISST certification

There are two levels of certification. A candidate must complete a number of hours of supervision and video a number of sessions with clients. Feedback on videos is given during supervision sessions. Videos that a Supervisor assesses as meeting the criteria are sent to an Examiner for marking. Both the Supervisor and Examiner charge fees.
