"Anyone working in roles that require regularly giving or receiving emotionally challenging communications, or engaging in relationally complex and challenging roles" (BACP).
I see clinical supervision as a professional, safe, creative, and dynamic space for therapists to reflect on their practice; monitor, develop and maintain ethical competence, skills, and confidence. It is also an opportunity for therapist mentoring, allowing them to process any personal difficulties that may arise in the course of their clinical work and private life. I intend to create a respectful environment to encourage exploration and growth.
My Approach
I offer an integrated approach to supervision based on The Seven-eyed Model (Hawkins & Shohet) and IDM (Stoltenberg, Delworth & McNeil), inspired by other brilliant authors: Proctor, Carroll, Bernard & Goodyear, and my favorite - Penny Henderson.
These frameworks help me conceptualize my supervisees and their clients, allowing me to effectively support counselors of different theoretical orientations and non-counseling professionals alike. I employ my knowledge of contemporary psychodynamic and relational thinking.
In broad terms, I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental supervisory relationship to support your growth and continue developing your unique style.
I hold an MA in Professional Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy (Supervision) from Middlesex University and The Minster Centre.
Professional consultation offers a reflective space for people working in helping, therapeutic or people-focused roles who may not be counsellors or psychotherapists. It provides an opportunity to step back from your work, explore challenges, think through professional relationships and consider different perspectives. My approach is warm, collaborative and integrative, with an emphasis on reflection, self-awareness and professional development.Personal Practice
