Supervision is recommended for anyone providing therapeutically based services, working in roles that require regularly giving or receiving emotionally challenging communications, or engaging in relationally complex and challenging roles’ - Introduction to supervision, BACP website. 

A space to reflect is essential for counsellors and psychotherapists to not only receive support for their work, but it is also key to working within an ethical framework and ensuring they practice safely.

I am a counsellor with 15 years’ experience who qualified as an Integrative supervisor in 2021 and works with trainees, counsellors, therapist and members of the wider therapeutic field.

The supervision I provide will create a safe space that facilitates self-reflection and development. You can bring your whole self to our sessions where I will provide support that is nurturing, informative and challenging to enable real meaningful growth and assimilation. Together we will set out to develop yourself and the support you provide to clients, facilitating a deepening of awareness, understanding and an exploration of new skills.

With core training in Gestalt, psychodynamics and CBT, I provide both one to one and group supervision, working with trainees and experienced professionals from a wide variety of therapeutic models and backgrounds.

In addition to my therapeutic career, I have worked in the social justice sector for many years and thoroughly understand the connection between personal well-being and the broader systems we are a part of.  I actively strive to improve my awareness and education around intersectional topics, including disability, racism and discrimination, developing an understanding of how it plays out in society and impacts us.

I feel it’s a duty for mental health professionals to thoroughly explore the part we may play in upholding structures that contribute to discrimination; whether consciously or not, whether inside or outside of the therapeutic room. I welcome open, honest, brave and challenging exploration of these topics in supervision to help expand awareness on the subject and identify how we may all work towards more inclusivity in the work we do.

I welcome people from all walks of life, all cultures, all belief systems, all the many genders and those from the LGBTQIA+ community.

As someone who knows the cost of training to enter this field, I am happy to discuss concessions for trainees.
