Supervision details
I am registered on the UKCP Directory of Approved Supervisors and Training Supervisors. I am also on The Centre for Transpersonal Psychology's Directory of Approved Supervisors. I have been supervising counsellors and psychotherapists since 2008. Most of my supervisees are in private practice, and additionally I have supervised an integrative Child Psychotherapist who works for a national children's charity, and a Schools Counsellor, both for many years. I have worked within the NHS offering clinical supervision to specialist cancer nurses. I enjoy using transpersonal techniques in supervision, and I am comfortable using creativity, arts, sand play and active imagination to look at case material. I have extensive experience of Systemic Family Constellations, and find that this perspective is valuable when looking at client work. I am vigilant about my supervisees taking care of themselves, and I believe that good and appropriate supervision is important as part of avoiding burn out. I am also very happy to look at practice development as part of the supervision session. I always welcome the opportunity to work with student psychotherapists and counsellors.
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.
Accredited register membership
