Supervision

Looking for a supervisor for your therapy or other supportive professional practice?

I offer clinical supervision, whether to meet your professional membership requirements, or to compliment your current supervision arrangements.

What is supervision?

Clinical supervision is an essential part of any therapeutic or supportive practice. It offers a space for therapists and other helping professionals to reflect upon their work, to develop their skills and understanding, to gain perspective and feedback, and to be supported and validated as they face and overcome professional and personal challenges.

Supervision not only promotes the best interests of clients by ensuring safe and ethical practice, but also empowers the supervisee to grow, develop and deepen their practice.

Effective supervision not only equips us with the tools and resources for our work, but also builds our self-awareness and skills for life!

My supervisory approach:

My supervisory style is based on the Person-Centred modality. I offer a warm and empathic space to bring difficult clinical material; a gentle yet challenging exploration of therapeutic process and relationships; and a safe, non-judgemental approach to support you with the personal impact of your work. Above all, I believe in building a strong, transparent, and supportive supervisory relationship which promotes both professional growth and self-care.

I am trained in the Seven-Eyed Model of supervision, so-called because it explores the therapeutic or supportive relationship from multiple perspectives: enabling you to gain a holistic view of your work and any issues that you encounter. The Seven-Eyed approach involves not only exploring the process between therapist/professional and client, but also using the supervisory relationship as a tool to deepen understanding. This model is suitable for practitioners from varied professional backgrounds and training. It also provides a framework for exploring difference and diversity within clinical and supervisory relationships. As a supervisor, I welcome the exploration of difference as a challenging yet key area for potential growth.

Who I work with:

Counsellors, humanistic psychotherapists, mental health practitioners and other helping professionals.

Please note, I am only able to supervise those working with adults (18+).

What to expect from a first session:

I offer a free initial consultation via phone or video call of up to 30 minutes, to discuss your needs and wishes for supervision. This session is a chance for you to get a feel for my supervisory style and to decide whether we would be a good fit.

My experience and qualifications:

I am a qualified Clinical Supervisor from a BACP-Accredited training program (PG Cert. Supervision in Counselling, Psychotherapy & Helping Relationships).

I have over 9 years of professional experience in clinical and supportive roles within health and social care. My background includes specialist counselling services for bereavement, domestic abuse, and adults with complex physical and mental health needs. With other previous roles in support services for homeless adults and survivors of Modern Slavery, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to support your practice.

As a therapist I currently work in private practice. Areas of professional interest for me include working with the LGBTQ+ community and neurodiverse adults.
