Supervision details
Why Supervision?
Supervision is an essential part of safe, ethical and competent practice. It provides a reflective space in which to stay grounded, maintain clear boundaries and remain attentive to self-care.
It also supports ongoing professional development by creating opportunities to explore your work, strengthen your practice and identify areas for growth. As a psychotherapist in private practice, I greatly value my own supervision and the role it plays in sustaining reflective, ethical and responsible practice.
My Approach
My approach to supervision is compassionate, ethical and curious, while also offering appropriate challenge. I use Hawkins and Shohet’s Seven-Eyed Model of supervision, a rich framework for reflecting on client work, the practitioner’s experience, the supervisory relationship and the wider professional context.
My core counselling modality is person-centred, and this orientation is central to my supervision practice. I also draw on experience in solution-focused therapy, developed through counselling clients within an Employee Assistance Programme, and on my previous career in senior educational leadership as an HR Director within a multi-academy trust.
Rates and Enquiries
All enquiries begin with an introductory call, with no commitment required, so that we can explore whether working together would be a good fit.
Ongoing supervision for qualified counsellors: £60 per 90-minute session for those who hold a supervision contract with me.
Student and ad hoc supervision: I also offer supervision to students and to qualified professionals seeking additional or occasional support. Please get in touch to discuss your needs and the applicable rates.
Whether you are looking for a new supervisor or want to supplement your existing supervision, I welcome an exploratory conversation.

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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
