Supervision details

Neurodiversity-informed supervision for trainee & newly qualified counsellors

Are you a trainee or newly qualified counsellor looking for supportive, thoughtful supervision while developing your confidence and professional identity?

I’m a Supervisor-in-Training offering a small number of online supervision spaces as part of my supervision training.

Alongside my counselling experience, I bring 17+ years of professional experience across SEND, disability, education and university settings. This gives me particular insight into work involving ADHD, autism, neurodivergence, disability, children and young people, anxiety, burnout, parents and carers.

My supervision approach is collaborative, reflective and supportive. It provides a space to explore your client work, therapeutic relationships, ethical practice, boundaries, use of self and your developing professional identity.

I work from a person-centred foundation, supported by my Level 5 Diploma in CBT Therapeutic Skills and Theory, and I am particularly interested in supporting counsellors who work with neurodivergent clients or who want supervision that is informed by an understanding of disability and difference.

What I offer

• A supportive, non-judgemental space to reflect on your practice

• Exploration of client work, therapeutic relationships and use of self

• Support with ethical dilemmas, boundaries and professional development

• Neurodiversity-informed supervision

• Particular experience of SEND, ADHD, autism and disability

• Online supervision available across the UK

Fees

Trainee counsellors: £35 per 60-minute session

This is a reduced fee while I complete my supervision training.

Newly qualified counsellors: £40 per 60-minute session

I currently have a small number of supervision spaces available.

As a Supervisor-in-Training, my supervision practice is undertaken within an appropriate supervision and training framework.

If you're looking for a supportive supervisor with extensive experience in counselling, SEND, disability, education and neurodiversity, please email me with a little information about yourself, where you are in your training or practice, and what you're looking for from supervision.
