Supervision details
What I offer:
I offer supervision to experienced therapists, newly qualified, and in training from my practice in the village of East Leake in LE12, which is 20 minutes from NG1 and the centre of Nottingham, and 15 from Loughborough town. I qualified at post-graduate level as a supervisor and work with qualified and trainee therapists either as individuals or in groups of 3.
A little about me:
I trained with The Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute and have 12 years experience as a psychotherapist working in private practice, the charity sector, NHS IAPT services, and higher education. I hold both BACP accreditation and UKCP registration as an Integrative psychotherapist. I love what I do and really enjoy supporting colleagues to develop professionally sound and enjoyable practice with their own clients.
My philosophy:
To offer a relational space that enables you to look at skills, processes, and the therapist-client relationship at a deeper level. I also see an aspect of supervision as brining in supportive challenge in a process of joint learning. It is a vital strand of professional development that facilitates your client work through holding awareness of both you and your client/s.
My supervision approach is informed by a relational-developmental framework that combines psychodynamic, attachment, self-psychology, object relations and humanistic theories.
Practicalities:
Fees: £60 per hour
Trainee therapists £55 per hour
I work with individual supervisees and small groups (max 3).

UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP)
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
