Reflective Practice Group pilot sessions (February – July 2023)
This was a space for practitioners who provide therapeutic services to children, young people and families in schools and wider education settings.
The offer of reflective practice group sessions was open to those who provide therapeutic services for children, young people and families in Barnardo’s (such as counselling/therapy, mentoring, and early intervention) who link with schools and wider education settings.
As a result of our ZCT funding, BEC had capacity to develop this offer through co-production with internal colleagues.
Working with internal colleagues helped us to shape and develop a space that is useful for them and also allowed us to create a model that is transferable and beneficial to external colleagues.
This was a supplementary reflective space for staff to support each other and their own individual wellbeing in addition to formal clinical supervision, group supervision, and/or managerial supervision.

This offer evolved from a Therapeutic Community Hub established in March 2021 in response to individual and collective needs of Barnardo’s practitioners who were searching for connection with fellow colleagues in Children’s Services across the UK.
