Tracey Murray

I supervise qualified, and trainee therapists working in a range of settings including Private Practice, EAP providers, Charities, Schools and Colleges.

I also offer clinical consultation to people in related fields such as teachers, and safeguarding staff helping them support people in their care.

I believe supervision is a place for curiosity and reflection, whilst being supportive and challenging to help promote awareness & understanding.
I feel that it is extremely important that you can trust your supervisor.

I work collaboratively with supervisee’s offering a safe space without fear of judgement. I believe supervision is a place for curiosity and reflection, whilst being supportive and challenging to promote supervisee’s awareness and understanding. This is to help ensure the effective development of your counselling practice, and to enable a safe, trusting relationship.

I am told that I am open, and friendly, and easy to talk to and like to think that I have a good sense of humour (when appropriate) I like to put clients, and supervisee's at ease.

I try to help supervisee's become the most effective practitioners they can be. Helping them to reflect and evaluate their interventions, think about what went well, or if there might be an alternative way of intervening, becoming aware of their countertranferential experiences, integrate theory into practice, and maintain self-care.

I enjoy sharing my experience, knowledge, and training with my supervisees’ and inevitably learning from them too. I believe supervision is a two way process, as you will bring your own experience, as well as your hopes and fears  to enrich the supervisory relationship. 

In addition to the above, I can offer supervisee’s the benefit of my experience from my ongoing private practice, which includes extensive experience of managing risk in addition to my professional experience and continued professional development training.  In addition to my private practice, I have worked on a clinical oversight team for a counselling provider helping their counsellors manage clients difficult issues, including risk. 

The supervision model I am currently practising is The Seven-Eyed Supervision model developed by Peter Hawkins and Robin Shohet.  I like The Seven Eyed model, as it focuses on the relationships between client, therapist, and supervisor and on the interplay between each relationship.  I also incorporate aspects of Page and Wosket’s  "Cyclical model".
