Supervision details
Supervision is a joint collaborative endeavour. I offer an open, integrated supervision relationship shaped by sixteen years of psychotherapy practice across private practice, NHS mental health services, hospice work, and secondary school/sixth‑form settings. My approach is relational and reflective, supporting therapists to slow down, notice the relational field, and understand what is emerging between client and therapist with depth and compassion.
Using the Seven‑Eyed Model, we explore the client’s experience, the therapist’s experience, the relational process between them, the interventions being used, and the wider systemic influences shaping the work. I support supervisees to apply theory and clinical experience in a grounded, practical way, making sense of what is happening in the room and how it connects to the client’s wider psychological landscape.
My strengths lie in mental health assessment and in understanding where mental health and psychotherapy meet. I help therapists think clearly about risk, presentation, formulation, and the limits and capacities of psychotherapy and counselling. Safe practice and ethical decision‑making sit at the centre of my supervisory style, with a focus on helping supervisees articulate their rationales and navigate complexity with confidence.
Supervision with me is collaborative and spacious. It offers a reflective home where therapists can integrate theory, experience, relational awareness, and mental health understanding to strengthen ethical clarity, clinical judgement, and the capacity to hold attuned, effective therapeutic relationships. Supervision can also take place outdoors, and I can supervise therapists who offer outdoor therapy as part of their practice.
