Supervisor Ute Dorner MBACP, PG Cert Supervision, Exp.Art Therapy & Group Work

I always enjoyed my own supervision and I love to supervise since 2012 other counselling professionals or trainees. The supervision for profession can be challenging, caring, informative, supportive and helpful, and offers the advice and guidance you might need as counsellor.

I studied counselling from 2005 in the UK and worked since 2007 with clients in England. Before 2005 I worked therapeutically for more then 20 years in The Netherlands as a Gestalt and Body therapist, as well as working as an expressive arts teacher. Based on the person-centred model I am striving to be congruent, unconditional and empathic.

Supervision needs to hold you safe when you doubt, offering solutions when needed, to challenge your case work so you know how to be the best for your client, and offering learning in the theory and the practical to find new ways so you can develop further.

For me supervision does not mean only working or talking. In order to find new ways to work with clients, we often need to engage the creative and non-analytical side of our brain. It has been proven to be very effective in the supervision process and will enlighten the relationship you have built with your client. Therefore I can incorporate art medias, embodied therapy, mindfulness and gestalt methods into my supervision work. 

I offer supervision in Shrewsbury, Chester and Oswestry or online. You are welcome to have a free introductory meeting face to face to find out if we can and like to work together.

I have been working as a supervisor since May 2012 after successfully completing the supervisor training for Cruse Bereavement Care, accredit by Aventis in July '12.
