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.
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.
“Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.” I might translate this is the realization that I am never a perfect spiritual director and supervision is a tool that keeps me responsible to my own growth as a spiritual director.”
Lucy Abbott Tucker, November 2021
In the 18 months since the publication of Lucy’s book Spiritual Direction Supervision: Principles, Practices, & Storytelling, new insights and wisdom have arisen from the myriad of online teachings and trainings that she has offered. These include the offering and receiving of self-care, hints to giving and receiving feedback, secondary trauma, and a new model of supervision. If you’ve done Supervision Training before, you will learn new things. If you’ve never done Supervision Training before, you will find immense growth, support, and care for your spiritual direction or spiritual companionship practice. Now, supervision training is for all spiritual directors and spiritual companions.
