Robin Shohet worked as a primary school teacher and then residential social worker in a therapeutic community for people coming out of psychiatric hospital. In 1979 he co-founded the Centre for Supervision and Team Development (www.cstdlondon.co.uk), specialising in supervision training. He is the author and editor of several books on supervision in counselling and other health and social care settings. In 1999 and 2013, he organised two international conferences on forgiveness, based on the spiritual self-study programme A Course in Miracles, and in recent years, as well as his supervision work, he has been delivering workshops on this topic.
He lives with his family at the Findhorn Foundation, a spiritual community in the North East of Scotland.
