Supervision details

What is supervision?

A space to lay everything in the open: the celebrations of what went well and the exploration of what might have been done differently.

At its best, it makes us better practitioners and creates more space for us to do our work.

I am an accredited integrative counsellor with 17 years of experience using a developmental model of therapy.

I have an in-depth understanding of Transactional Analysis, Person Centred Counselling, Psychodynamic and Relational approaches and also use several creative approaches in my work including art, guided imagery, art and immersive technologies

I specialise in working with neurodivergent and anxious young people and adults and their families, and am an LGBTQ+ ally.

How I like to work

From trying out new approaches to honing in on existing skills; from processing something that happened in a session, to sharing best practice and knowledge, I believe good supervision needs to be underpinned by a strong working relationship which then makes it possible to go deeply into the beautiful work that counselling can be.

Connection and collaboration are key.

I use an Integrative approach and framework which focuses on different areas including your relationship with your client, our working relationship and a recognition that the context within which we see our clients plays a key part in how we work. 

When can I book?

Sessions are held online or in-person and I currently have daytime spaces on Wednesday and Thursday. 

Reduced fee of £40 per hour for trainees.  

£70 per hour full price.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.

Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
