Supervision details

Hello, I’m Louise, an experienced Counsellor/Psychotherapist and qualified Clinical Supervisor. 

I provide a warm and authentic space for you to explore and reflect on your clinical experience and case load. I believe good supervision should offer all the above, as well as some challenging if the need arises. 

I am passionate about supporting Counsellors, Psychotherapists, other healthcare and education  professionals as they develop the skills and knowledge needed to excel in their careers. With 9 years of experience in Counselling from an Integrative approach, with my main framework from a cognitive behavioural approach, I am dedicated to providing a collaborative, supportive environment where learners can grow, ask questions, and gain hands-on experience. My approach to supervision is rooted in open communication, constructive feedback, and fostering a growth mindset. I believe in empowering my supervisee’s to think critically, develop their clinical reasoning, and build the confidence they need to thrive in real-world practice.

My approach to supervision supports those working with adults, Children and Young people in an organisational, third sector, health, education or private practice setting. 

I work from the The 7-Eyed Model of Supervision, developed by Peter Hawkins and Robin Shohet. This is a framework that outlines the different perspectives a clinical supervisor should consider in their supervision practice. These “eyes” represent different areas of focus for both the supervisor and the supervisee. Here’s a brief overview:

 1. The Client’s Eye: Focus on the client and their needs, goals, and the work being done with them.

 2. The Supervisee’s Eye: Focus on the supervisee’s personal and professional development, their feelings, strengths, and challenges in the work.

 3. The Supervisor’s Eye: The supervisor’s role, their experience, and how they engage with the supervisee. It includes their values, emotions, and approach to supervision.

 4. The Supervisory Relationship Eye: The dynamics between the supervisor and supervisee, how they relate, and the working alliance.

 5. The Context Eye: The broader context in which supervision is taking place, including organizational and societal factors, policies, and institutional support.

 6. The Process Eye: Focus on the process of supervision itself—how the supervision sessions are conducted, how feedback is given, and how the learning environment is structured.

 7. The Reflection Eye: This focuses on the supervisee’s reflection on their practice, personal growth, and self-awareness. It emphasizes critical thinking and insight development.


Together, these “eyes” offer a comprehensive approach to supervision, ensuring that all aspects of the supervisee’s learning, the client’s needs, and the dynamics of the supervisory relationship are attended to. 

I look forward to working with you and supporting your professional development. if you feel we would be suited to working together, please feel free to reach out to arrange an Initial consultation to discuss how we can work together to achieve your learning goals.

I also offer consultancy to professionals in the care and helping professions

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
