Supervision details
Online Relational Supervision & Mentoring
I offer online clinical supervision and mentoring for counsellors, psychotherapists, therapists and helping professionals who would value a calm, supportive and reflective space to think about their work, professional development and the emotional impact of supporting others.
My particular focus is relational supervision. This means looking not only at the client work itself, but also at the relationships, patterns, roles, and expectations that can shape practice.
This may include the relationship between therapist and client, supervisee and supervisor, practitioner and service, or practitioner and self.
Together, we can explore what may be happening beneath the surface, including relational patterns, confidence, boundaries, emotional responses, risk, difference, culture, power, identity, and professional development.
My Experience and Approach
I have over 20 years’ experience working across NHS Talking Therapies and the charity sector, including senior clinical, supervisory, and leadership roles.
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor, as well as an IPT-UK Accredited Therapist and IPT-UK Clinical Supervisor.
My supervisory style is warm, collaborative, thoughtful, and reflective. I aim to provide a space where you can think openly, feel supported rather than judged, and develop confidence in your own professional voice and decision-making.
Supervision can include challenge as well as support. Where helpful, I will offer reflections, ask questions, and help you consider different perspectives while respecting your experience, autonomy, and developing professional identity.
Who I Work With
I welcome supervisees and mentees at different stages of their careers, including those who are:
- Students - Newly qualified and developing confidence
- Building their professional identity
- Moving into private practice
- Developing clinical responsibility
- Stepping into supervisory or leadership roles
- Managing changes in their career
- Looking for a reflective space outside their employing organisation
- Wanting to reconnect with confidence, purpose, or direction in their work
Areas We Can Explore
Supervision and mentoring may include space to think about:
- Clinical reflection and case formulation
- Risk, safeguarding and ethical decision-making
- Relational and interpersonal patterns
- Practitioner confidence and professional identity
- Boundaries, roles and expectations
- Culture, difference, power and unconscious bias
- The emotional impact of supporting others
- NHS Talking Therapies and voluntary-sector practice
- Working within organisational systems
- Service pressures, targets and waiting lists
- Private practice development
- Leadership and career development
- Confidence in senior or supervisory roles
I understand the emotional demands of therapeutic and helping work, particularly when practitioners are holding complexity, risk, responsibility and organisational pressures alongside the needs of the people they support.
My aim is to provide a grounded and supportive space where you can feel heard, think clearly, and continue developing in a way that feels authentic to you.
Mentoring
Alongside clinical supervision, I also offer relational mentoring for counsellors, therapists and helping professionals who want support with their wider professional development.
Mentoring may be helpful if you are:
- Developing your professional role
- Building confidence
- Setting up or developing a private practice
- Considering your next career step
- Moving into leadership or supervision
- Adjusting to greater professional responsibility
- Wanting greater clarity about your professional direction
This provides a space to reflect on where you are now, where you would like to be, what may be getting in the way, and the practical steps that can help you move forward with greater confidence and clarity.
Online supervision and mentoring are available across the UK.

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Interpersonal Psychotherapy UK (IPT UK) is a multi-disciplinary interest group for people involved in the training, practice and theory of Interpersonal Psychotherapy.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
