The foundation of my supervision practice is based on a simple premise – I’m going to offer you space. The work we do as practitioners is hard, I’m offering to hear you. Beyond that of course is a lot more, I will offer a space which is.. Collaborative Reflective Expressive Restorative Inquisitive

Supervision with me is about replenishing your resources and honouring the work that you do as well as providing a space for ethical decision making and looking at your development and meeting your professional needs. I’m a person centred therapist but welcome working with others from different therapeutic perspectives. The experience that I bring with me is varied – including private practice, third sector and charity work. I’ve also experience of being self employed, both in private work and in my previous career. In particular I’ve worked with clients outside for a number of years, offering outdoor therapy / ecotherapy / walk and talk and am passionate about this area of practice. Practicalities: I’m based in Shropshire and have access to a private woodland space for supervision. Alternatively we can work online, using various platforms or meet in rooms in either Shrewsbury or Telford. As well as traditional monthly or fortnightly sessions I’m happy to work on a more infrequent basis or even ad-hoc or one-off sessions. For example if you’re looking to examine elements around outdoor therapy or need a session whilst your regular supervisor is away just get in touch. I work only with those working with adults, and at present am not taking on any trainees. Sessions are from £60 an hour.
