Thank you for an enriching day full of intellectual stimulation, skill development and wonderful networking. The refresher I needed at this point in time.

OMG, why haven't I done this training sooner? Many lightbulb moments.

The workshop was an excellent balance of theoretical knowledge and scenario and experimental learning, with ample opportunity to work through ethical dilemmas using a number of ethical decision-making models. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a refresher on ethical decision making. Many thanks for an enriching day!

Thank you for such a rich learning experience with lots of takeaway ideas, tools for my supervision practice. I feel inspired and refreshed after the day. I liked the strength-based approach theme throughout the day.

Clear and ongoing opportunities for participants to direct learning - thanks you! Degree of relevance to my professional interests was pleasantly surprising - Amanda made several connections to contexts specific to me and my needs. Much appreciated.

Very helpful and informative for my roles as supervisor and supervisee, and the workshop has provided me with some fresh ideas and frameworks to try. Thank you.

I felt reinvigorated in my supervision role - I've come away with new ideas, perspectives and things I will try immediately. Thank you - I really needed this and it was GREAT to reconnect with social workers.

I was recommended Amanda for professional supervision by an ex-colleague and was not disappointed. As a relatively new social worker, I found the experience, reflection and insight that Amanda brought to my supervision sessions to be a great support during my transition into a new social work role and field of practice. Amanda helped me to identify my strengths, critically reflect on my cases and further develop my practice approach. I also felt that these sessions helped me to maintain a connection to the social work profession whilst practicing in an organisation where I was the sole social worker. Overall I was very happy with the sessions and would definitely recommend Amanda as a supervisor.

I can recommend Amanda Nickson as a professional supervisor. Amanda's supervision style is supportive, reliable and thorough. I liked Amanda's positive approach when she supervised my practice and I always felt as though I had been really listened to during our supervision sessions. When you work in a remote area as a professional, without many peers close by, having a supervisor who actively listens is really important. Amanda and I worked collaboratively during supervision around issues and tricky situations, I found myself working in. As a non-Indigenous worker, working in an Indigenous community, I found Amanda's recognition of Australia's first peoples, respectful, and helpful in understanding the dynamics of the work place. I highly recommend Amanda as a supervisor.

“As a professional colleague, I have appreciated Amanda's professional Peer Supervision sessions over the years. It is not only new graduates who can benefit from professional supervision, but also social workers' like myself who are at the cross roads in their career path, who seek professional guidance and direction. Amanda is an amazing person, so patient, empathetic, an active listener, and non-judgemental in her practice. I have also found Amanda to be creative, innovative and solution focused in providing constructive, relevant and appropriate solutions/outcomes to the perceived complexities and dilemmas of daily practice. Amanda is a social worker who is truly professional and trustworthy in her practice. I hold a great deal of respect and fondness for Amanda, and grateful our paths have crossed. Thank you Amanda!!!”
