Supervision details

Whether you're looking for regular support or a one-off space to reflect, supervision with me is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in your unique context.

With years of experience working across the NHS and education system, and in therapeutic roles with both adults and children, I bring a broad, compassionate perspective to the supervisory space. I also run a successful private practice and can offer practical, grounded support if you're building or growing your own, whether you're just starting out or navigating new phases of your work.

Supervision with me is a co-created space: empathic, affirming, and grounded in the belief that you are the expert in your own work.

Rooted in a person-centred philosophy, I trust in your experience and capacity to grow. I bring the Seven-Eyed Model as a flexible lens through which we can explore your client work, relationships, processes, and the wider systems at play. It’s not a rigid structure, but a series of gentle invitations, prompts, and perspectives we can draw from when they serve you.

You lead the way. Together, we explore, stay curious, and create room for you to connect with what matters most: your values, your voice, and your ongoing development as a practitioner.

I recognise that supervision needs shift over time. Sometimes you may need support and guidance; at other times, gentle challenge or sharper focus. I hold space for those shifts, responding with care and flexibility as your needs and circumstances change.

Alongside this, I hold a strong ethical foundation. Supervision is not just a space for exploration. It’s a place where we stay connected to our responsibilities: to our clients, to the profession, and to ourselves. I aim to support you in feeling ethically grounded, confident, and aligned in your work.

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.
