Supervision details
Lovely to meet you I am a qualified Clinical Psychologist, registered with HCPC, accredited by the BABCP and fully trained and practicing in the DBT model. I currently practice in Adult Mental Health services in the NHS as well as run my own private practice called Avenue Therapies (www.avenuetherapies.com). I am pleased to be able to offer supervision as an open, flexible and compassion focused practitioner on a range of different psychological models including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT). I offer a solution focused and compassionate stance in my work and would hope to offer a helpful alternative perspective to your clinical work as well as offering guidance and support in relation to working in private or NHS practice. I offer regular structured supervision where we would agree agenda together and think about how best to use our supervision time together. I would be happy to offer some time to talk on the phone or to meet in person as an initial 'hello' and to see if our styles and approach to supervision would be a good fit. I am quite flexible in terms of when I could offer supervision outside of normal Monday to Friday 9-5 working hours. I am based in Ealing in London. My experience I have worked in psychological services in the NHS since 2001 supporting adolescents and adults to understand, manage and grow in their mental health and wellbeing. I have experience working with a broad range of personal issues and difficulties, relationship and relational problems, psychological (e.g. anxiety, stress, depression, OCD, psychosis, social anxiety, phobias) emotional (e.g. emotion dysregulation and coping with intense emotions) and physical ill health (for example living with chronic enduring physical health difficulties such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, chronic pain and Multiple Sclerosis) and existential challenges (e.g. changes in life roles, new life chapters, thinking about the future, older age and the meaning of life). I have practiced as a supervisor for practitioners working privately, in the NHS and for trainees working towards BABCP accreditation or on the Clinical Psychology doctorate.

The BABCP is the lead organisation for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the UK. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the practice, theory or development of CBT. BABCP also provides accreditation for CBT therapists. BABCP accredited members adhere to the Standards of Conduct, Performance and Ethics in the Practice of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies, and are willing to be scrutinised in this adherence as required.
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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
