Professional supervision supports the work of financial counsellors

The supervision process provides a forum to discuss casework, clinical aspects of the role and the counsellor's emotional and psychological wellbeing.

• Professional supervision is an equal relationship founded on mutual trust and respect.
• Line management supervision is a different process to professional supervision.
• Line management is undertaken by a person or persons to whom the financial counsellor reports.
• Line management includes oversight of the casework undertaken by the financial counsellor as well as ensuring the financial counsellor meets organisational goals and complies with standards.
