Programme Structure & Pace

The programme structure is segmented into three sections and smaller units. There are different learning technologies for different learners, including audio, video, illustrations, text, discussion forums, and worksheets. The delivery is in short, bite size portions so it is easily digestible. You work through each section and the smaller units before moving onto the next section. You divide your time in a way that suits your schedule. The programme is geared towards a fulfilling learner experience and deep transformation of belief systems, perceptions, awareness and consciousness. It works best if you engage, ask questions and participate in the online discussions, which are there for your support. Online study is supported through a week intensive for each of the three sections. These intensives run two times a year. It is important to have either in person or via skype sessions with Kate and atttend the group coaching sessions.

Section 1

 

Embracing Inner Work

 

This is the first section of the programme focuses on you building your knowledge and shifting your perceptions. You are guided to journey into your own innerwork by exploring experientially the theory and concepts.

This helps you directly experience shifts and new awareness about yourself and this work.

There is reflecting, journaling, live group coaching sessions, sisterhood community connections and support.

This can take place over 4 months. Once you have completed this section, you can move on to section 2.

 

The following approaches are included in this section:

 

  • Theory learning: Teach theoretical and conceptual topics to provide a context for the entire program and help students to alter their perceptions.
  • Experiencing: Provide personal exercises for students to work with the theories and do their own innerwork.
  • Reflecting: Using both their past and current experiences, provide deep reflective questions for students to ponder.
  • Discovering: Provide richer lessons and guided exercises for students to advance their understanding of theories shared earlier.
  • Shifting: Have students determine their profound insights and share in the discussion forum how that has impacted their life, views and work.
  • Supporting: Provide live calls and written support in the discussion forum. Can commence small group work for support purposes.

Section 2

 

Using Counselling Tools

 

The next section introduces deeper tools and methods that you can use to begin to work with others. You receive a buffet of tools which you can experiment. You are also guided to work in groups.

Here you will be sharing your experience and exploration with the tools in the online community as well as your own group, as well as critiquing and customising the tools for their own practice, bringing your own flavour to them.

Live group coaching sessions, weekly email prompts showcasing tools, online community work and sharing of creative work.

This can take place over 5 months. Once you have completed this section, you can move on to the final section 3.

 

The following approaches are included in this section:

 

  • Exploring: Provide access to all tools (or drip out some at one time) with instructions on using and sharing of other resources.
  • Experimenting: Provide guided exercises on how students should engage with the tools and expectations or goals to achieve. Start the small groups to share the work.
  • Reflecting: Students reflecting on their experiences with the counseling tools. Small groups to share their reflections to learn from one another.
  • Critiquing/evaluating: Later in this section, after experimenting with the tools, students critically assess and evaluate the tools in an online discussion.
  • Personalising: Students amend tools to suit their practise.
  • Sharing: Students to share 1 or 2 amended tools along with a description and reasons for their changes.

Section 3

 

Working with Clients

 

This section is delivered as a guided self-monitoring practicum with certain requirements, goals, teachings, instructions, resources, and reporting back. You will be exploring specific counselling methods with clients, in a gradual way.

You can track your own progress against a series of checklists and submit them via a survey online. Once the practicum criteria and hours are completed, a certificate can be provided.

This can take place over 5 months.

The following approaches are included in this section:

 

  • Practicing: Have students follow a self-monitoring practicum with set requirements to work with clients using new approaches, methods and tools.
  • Applying: After some practicing, students can work on applying new methods to their practice.
  • Working: For a period of time, new methods are used in their regular practice with notetaking of reflections, critiques and action plans.
  • Revising: Ask students to share their client work experience and how they have altered their practice using and possibly altering new methods and tools.
  • Systemizing: Help students to seamlessly use new methods and tools.
  • Establishing: At this point, students have altered and established a new way of counseling in their regular practice.

How The Programme Is Designed To Ensure You Transform & Learn

How You Spiral From Innerwork to Client Work

The Core Principles of Our Peer Sisters Support Network

 

Mutual – As we support each other on our journey during the programme, it is critical that we aim to contribute as much or more than the group contributes us to. Whatever your expectations from the group, give in the same way and you are more likely to receive it in return.

Reciprocal – Peer relationships involve a sharing and exploration of different cultural and world views and the generation of solutions together. Respecting that we are all on various stages of our spiritual and soul journeys, while supporting and learning from each other.

Non-directive – The peer sister support forum is not for telling others what they should or should not do, or even giving advice. We are here to answer questions, share our experiences and be supportive of other’s decisions in their journey, but essentially it’s there to support others to find their own answers from within.

Encouragement focused – Peer support engages the group with inspiring empowerment and helps generate personal belief, energy and commitment with the person you are supporting. This could mean supporting people to work through their personal challenges by focusing on a strengths-based, inclusive, progressive and safe environment. These principles can be used to guide training and supervision and to maintain the integrity of the peer role.

Strengths-based – Through knowledge and experience sharing, peer support explores what a person has gained from their experience, seeks out their qualities and assets, identifies hidden achievements and celebrates what may seem like the smallest steps forward. This involves a relationship where we are providing or receiving support with no fear of communicating successes or struggles and for the group to be able to identify, through their experiences, in what ways everyone is succeeding and growing on their journey.

InclusiveBeing a ‘peer’ is also about understanding the meaning of the group’s collective experiences and involvement in the process of the individual and group journey. Creating space and avenues that engage the group as a whole and allow feedback and involvement from everyone is key. There are group members that will share more than others and some less. We need to gauge when to give others the chance to share or respond and that may mean actively, and politely, engaging someone in conversation versus waiting for them to speak up. We acknowledge that we all have different abilities when it comes to speaking up, so we support each other to do this through engagement.

Progressive Peer support does not involve static friendships, but progressive mutual support in a shared journey of discovery. The peer is not just a ‘buddy’, but a travelling companion, with both travellers learning new skills, developing new resources and reframing challenges as opportunities for finding new solutions.

Safe – Supportive peer relationships involve the negotiation of what emotional safety means to both parties. This can be achieved by discovering what makes each other feel unsafe, sharing rules of confidentiality, demonstrating compassion, authenticity and non-judgment.
