A SAFE, REFLECTIVE SPACE 

I offer supervision to counsellors working with adults or children, as well as others in helping professions, who may benefit from reflecting on their work and clients in a confidential and supportive environment.

I am a fully trained integrative therapist and have supervised the clinical work of fellow counsellors for a number of years.  In addition I have completed additional training in supervision (Level 6 CPCAB Certificate in Therapeutic Counselling Supervision).  I work with counsellors from a wide range of theoretical orientations and as I myself practice integratively I'm able to be flexible and tailored in my approach.  My own background and ongoing work is with adults, young people and children.

I offer face to face, online and phone supervision.  

SUPPORTING AND DEVELOPING YOUR PRACTICE

My approach within supervision is that we are always learning, whether things are going well or we are encountering difficulties with our clients.  I believe that by offer fellow therapists and others in people centred environments, an effective, non judgemental professional relationship and a safe confidential space to reflect on practice, we can grow and develop in our work.

With a background of working with children as well as using items and materials with adult clients I'm accustomed to working creatively.  Many therapists are now incorporating art, craft and other materials and techniques into their practice.  I am happy to support and supervise counsellors in their creative practice and incorporate these ideas into our sessions.
