Supervision details

I’m a COSCA Supervisor and experienced Psychotherapist based in Portobello, Edinburgh. I qualified as a Supervisor in 2013, following my Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling from Stirling University in 2011.
I bring over a decade of experience working with adults, children, couples, and families, and I offer supervision that is grounded, collaborative, and emotionally attuned. My own therapeutic journey continues to shape my approach — thoughtful, relational, and deeply respectful of each practitioner’s unique path.
Supervision with me is a space to think clearly, reflect deeply, and grow with confidence. I welcome supervisees at all stages of their development, and I aim to foster curiosity, clarity, and professional integrity. Whether you're navigating complex clinical work, building your practice, or seeking a steady space to reflect, I offer supervision that is both supportive and robust.

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.
