At the heart of supervision is a professional and ethical commitment to safety and best practice. It provides an appropriate space to explore, discuss, query, reflect upon and learn from clinical work.
I aim to offer a supervision experience that is professional, relational and empowering, with a focus on both the welfare of the client, and the welfare & professional development of the therapist.
The supervisory relationship is key to a fulfilling and stimulating supervision experience. At our first meeting I take time to explore your wishes and needs from supervision, and undertake for us regularly to review that we are meeting those needs. This is done in a spirit of mutual collaboration and respect – two professionals working together for the greater good.
Regular and on-going supervision is a professional requirement – I strive to offer a balance between the serious, weighty, ethical issues which often confront us, and the lighter, creative and celebratory aspect of supervision, such that it feels less a monthly obligation, and more a rich, collaborative, professional experience to look forward to!
