Your tutors are alongside you throughout the training, witnessing how it shapes and supports you. You’ll receive ongoing feedback and encouragement, including reflections on your readiness to complete each year. It’s a continuous, compassionate process, not a pass/fail test.

Supervision is an essential part of your training and ministry. It’s a one-to-one space with an accredited supervisor where you can reflect, grow, and stay connected to your work and wellbeing.

Supervision supports:

• Spiritual care – helping you stay grounded and supported

• Reflective practice – keeping you accountable and self-aware

• Growth – offering insight into your strengths and challenges

• Connection – reminding you you’re not alone on this path

All students are expected to be in regular supervision. It’s not included in the course fee — this gives you freedom to choose a supervisor from our accredited list who suits your needs and budget.

This training asks for your full presence, not perfection, but genuine participation. You’ll need to show up in class, engage with the exercises, and continue to nurture your spiritual practice daily. We recommend setting aside at least 30 minutes each day for this.

The journey is rich and rewarding, and at times, challenging. It’s a space for deep personal enquiry, spiritual growth, and honest reflection. You’ll need self-awareness, self-motivation, and a willingness to be open, even when the process brings discomfort.

While this training is deeply supportive, it’s not a substitute for therapy. We ask all students to consider whether they’re ready for this kind of inner work and to make sure they have the support they need in place, such as counselling or other therapeutic care if needed.
