Reflective Practice · Zara O'Brien MBACP, GMBPsS
A space to think about
the work you carry home.
Facilitated reflective practice groups for professionals doing emotionally demanding work alongside displaced communities. Fortnightly, small group, clinically led.
The space between what happened and what it means.
WHAT IS REFLECTIVE PRACTICE?
Reflective practice is a structured, facilitated space for professionals to think about their work — the cases that stay with them, the interactions that were harder than expected, the cumulative weight of being alongside people in acute distress.
It is not supervision, though it has some of the same qualities. It is not therapy, though it can feel containing. It is a space for honest, supported thinking about the work you do — led by someone with clinical expertise in the specific psychological territory you are navigating.
Anyone supporting displaced or migrating people.
