Supervision details

My intention as a supervisor is to create a space that feels grounding, open, and real, somewhere you can think honestly about your work, feel supported in the challenges, and grow into your own way of practising with more confidence and clarity.

I work in a relational and collaborative way, with a strong emphasis on the supervisory relationship. I aim to offer a reflective, down-to-earth space where there’s room for curiosity, honesty, humour, and the kinds of conversations that lead to meaningful shifts. I value a balance of challenge, exploration, knowledge-sharing and collegiality, so that supervision feels both supportive and stretching, without becoming rigid or hierarchical.

My approach is integrative, drawing from person-centred, psychodynamic, CBT, somatic, CFT, and existential perspectives. This allows us to think flexibly together, adapting to your way of working, your clients, and your stage of development.


A core part of my work, both as a therapist and supervisor, is identity-aware and culturally sensitive practice. I hold in mind how identity and lived experience, including race, culture, gender, sexuality, and family or societal expectations, shape both you and your clients. You won’t need to minimise or translate these parts of yourself here; they are welcomed into the work, especially if you’ve felt unseen or have had to adapt in other spaces.

Supervisees often describe me as warm, personable and light-hearted. I bring humour and honesty into the room alongside a strong ethical foundation, creating a space where you can feel supported while also being thoughtfully challenged.

Ultimately, I aim to support you in developing a confident, authentic therapeutic voice and identity, one that feels aligned, grounded, and true to who you are.

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.
