Sarah Oak MBACP Accredited Integrative Counsellor & Supervisor

Milton Keynes MK5 & MK11

From my own experience, I know how important it is to work alongside the right Supervisor as this working alliance can impact significantly on your confidence, practice and progression as a Therapist. I work supportively, reflectively and with challenge where needed/wanted, with the aim of helping my supervisees to explore challenging case material, maintain ethical standards, develop within their work, grow as a professional, recognise strengths, enhance creativity and celebrate good practice.

I believe it is essential to bring to sessions, considerations for the impact that personal life and circumstances can have upon work life, not simply viewing the work in isolation. This benefits awareness of self-care needs and work-life balance. I also consider my relationship with each supervisee as a two way learning process, taking an open approach to life-long learning in the supervision process.

As an integrative therapist I draw upon a wide range of techniques and approaches, which is underpinned by a therapeutic relationship, to offer a tailored service to the individual client. These include Person-Centred, CBT, Transactional Analysis, Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and Therapeutic Coaching.

And just like my therapeutic work, my approach to supervision is integrative too, working with various relational, developmental, coaching and systemic supervision models to inform my practice.

I offer supervision to Student Counsellors, newly qualified Counsellors and experienced Counsellors working in a variety of settings with a wide range of theoretical modalities.

I can offer fixed or flexible sessions on a fortnightly or monthly basis.

Accessibility

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.
