Supervision

What do I need to know about VAFT and Supervision?

In applying for Clinical Membership, VAFT requires you to register your supervision arrangement prior to supervision taking place. This is so that you and your supervisor can clearly understand VAFT's expectations regarding the supervision process.

So what do I need to do?

  • You and your Principal Supervisor need to both sign and date a Supervision Agreement and forward this to VAFT Administration. Once the Agreement is returned, your Supervisor will also receive a package of information, outlining what is expected of the supervision process.
  • You should read the "Guidelines for Supervision" found on this website.
  • You should read the "Keeping a Supervision Log" found on this website.

Please contact the VAFT Office for WORD versions of these documents.

Are there any VAFT requirements of my Supervisor and referee?

Yes. Both your Principal Supervisor and your referee need to have been fully financial Clinical Members of VAFT for at least 5 years. Or, in exceptional circumstances have been deemed by the Membership Committee to have had the equivalent. Your Principal Supervisor must have had direct experience of a minimum of five hours of your family therapy skills.

Remember, it is strongly recommended that you keep a copy of any documentation for your own records.

Once you feel you have met the Requirements for Clinical Membership of VAFT Inc., you can download the Clinical Application forms from the Clinical Membership page.

Please note: As from 01/01/2010, new Clinical Membership applicants wishing to be included on the PACFA National Register of Practitioners will require an additonal 75 hours of supervision over and above the VAFT requirement.
