Spiritual Direction

Supervision

A 12-Week Online Course with Lucy Abbott Tucker

Lucy Abbott Tucker, SDI co-founder and worldwide expert on spiritual direction supervision, has agreed to offer the SDI community a 12-week online course on supervision.

For the first time ever, experience and receive Lucy’s Supervision Training in an online setting.

This is a chance to join one of SDI’s living wisdom teachers and dive deeper into a subject at the heart of our calling.

Lucy has taught on this subject around the world, but it’s often hard for people to pay for the travel and hotel costs to attend her workshops. Now, this online course, starting January 2022, makes learning about supervision not only more convenient, but also more affordable.

This course will provide a program in the practice of supervision for spiritual directors.  The sessions will include input, discussion, and practice for the work of spiritual direction and spiritual companionship.

Since writing  Spiritual Direction Supervision:  Principles, Practices, & Storytelling over 18 months ago, Lucy in her subsequent teachings has gained new insights and wisdom in the practice of Supervision, which include self-care, hints to giving and receiving feedback, secondary trauma and a new model of supervision.
