Supervision details

I completed a Certificate of Supervision with Relational Change over 9 months in 2024. Their Self Other Situation, relational framework of Supervision fits neatly with my Gestalt psychotherapy practice. 

I bring my 8 years of experience working in private practice, alongside my relational, body focussed and creative style, to my supervision practice. As a Wild Therapist, I am able to support ecotherapists and outdoor walk and talk therapists. With my warm and supportive manner, we will work alongside each other for the benefit of you and your clients.

I offer face to face and online sessions for individuals at £60 per hour and work from The Retreat New Forest, Christchurch, BH23 7EF and sometimes from the Coastal Practice, Southbourne, BH6 4EH. I also offer Group supervision sessions face to face for counsellors and psychotherapists as well as reflective practice group sessions for schools, healthcare settings, charities or businesses.

Please email or call if you're interested and we can arrange an initial session to check our suitability for working together.

Key details

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

Access available at The Coastal Practice in Southbourne.
