Supervision details
I have been practising as an art psychotherapist since 2008 and have offered clinical supervision and staff support since 2010. I have worked across the NHS, community settings, private practice, higher education and charities, supporting people working with complex trauma and a range of mental health needs.
My approach is compassionate and psychodynamic, with attention to the emotional, social and economic dimensions of our work and the wider contexts in which we practise. I am particularly interested in how trauma, marginalisation, culture and identity shape therapeutic relationships and professional roles.
Although I trained as an art psychotherapist, art-making is not a requirement of my supervision or reflective practice. I aim to offer a thoughtful and supportive space for reflection, curiosity and professional development.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
