Supervision details

Hi there,

I'm a qualified supervisor who employs two well-established models in clinical supervision: Hawkins and Shohet's Seven-eyed Framework and Stoltenberg and McNeil's Integrative Developmental Model (IDM).

I offer clinical supervision to fully qualified practitioners working with individual clients. 

I am passionate about supporting newly qualified practitioners to transition into private practice and can offer guidance on a wide range of practicalities alongside navigating and attending to common phenomena such as anxiety or imposter syndrome. 

I'm a down-to-earth, chilled professional and aspire to create a safe environment where we can discuss and examine all aspects of your work. I aim to foster a space where you can show up, if needed, as your most vulnerable professional self. 

At times, we might like to have done things 'better', and this is why I don't view things as mistakes - attending to things we would like to do differently provides opportunities to learn and grow, which supports us in evolving our professional identities.

Our work is always focused on the best interests of your clients as well as your professional self. As your supervisor, I strive for a solid relationship built on trust and mutual respect. I commit to supporting your professional growth, will help you in navigating any ethical considerations that may arise and listen to your supervisory preferences to shape your space to your needs. 

If you have any questions or would like to book a free 15-minute chat to see if we could be a good fit, please feel free to contact me. I aim to respond to all enquiries on the same day, if within business hours, but will always be in touch within 24 hours. 

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.
