Supervision details
I am a Humanistic Integrative Supervisor offering reflective, ethically grounded supervision for counsellors and psychotherapists who wish to develop their practice with greater depth, confidence, and clarity.
My approach to supervision is relational and integrative, supporting both the emotional and professional dimensions of therapeutic work. I work collaboratively with supervisees to explore client material, therapeutic process, ethical considerations, and the impact of the work on the practitioner.
Supervision with me offers a space to think carefully and critically about your practice; including how you work with complexity, manage uncertainty, and refine your therapeutic presence. Alongside support and containment, I offer thoughtful challenge where appropriate, encouraging deeper self-reflection, professional accountability, and clinical maturity.
I draw on integrative and humanistic frameworks, with space for intuitive and transpersonal understanding where it enhances clinical insight and ethical decision-making. This work is always held within clear professional boundaries and aligned with the ethical standards of the counselling profession.
I am particularly well-suited to reflective, engaged practitioners who are committed to ongoing professional development and willing to take responsibility for their work; including those working with complex client presentations or navigating transitions in their professional identity.
To maintain depth and consistency, I work with a limited number of supervisees. Supervision is therefore most suited to practitioners who are ready to engage thoughtfully and actively in the supervisory process.
In our initial session, we will establish a clear supervisory contract, explore your current practice context, and identify how supervision can best support your clinical work, ethical responsibility, and professional growth over time.
The first supervision session establishes the foundation for our working relationship. It is a space to begin building trust, clarity, and a shared understanding of how we will work together. We will explore your expectations of supervision, your current practice context, and what you are seeking from the supervisory process at this stage of your professional journey. I will also outline how I work as a supervisor, ensuring there is a clear and mutual understanding of roles, boundaries, and ethical responsibility.
You will be invited to reflect on your counselling journey, including your experience, areas of strength, and any current challenges within your practice. This helps situate the supervision in a way that is relevant, purposeful, and professionally supportive.
Where appropriate, space will be available to bring client material or therapeutic processes for initial exploration. This allows us to begin working reflectively from the outset, while maintaining appropriate containment and focus.
The intention of the first session is to create a clear, collaborative supervisory framework that supports both your clinical work and ongoing professional development.
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.
