What you can expect from me as a supervisor…
I offer a warm, collaborative and reflective supervision space for both qualified and trainee therapists. I welcome practitioners from a range of modalities and work to understand and support your unique approach to therapy.
I have experience as a Counselling Skills Tutor at Leeds Beckett University, working closely with trainees on the Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling & Psychotherapy, and bring this into my supervision style – encouraging growth, curiosity and critical thinking.
As a supervisor, I aim to uphold professional and ethical standards in the field of counselling by:
Supporting you to maintain client safety and wellbeing
Creating a facilitative and non-judgemental space to explore your therapeutic work
Reflecting together on the dynamics and unconscious processes that may emerge in the client relationship
Encouraging you to deepen your self-awareness and professional development
Practice background
In addition to my supervision work, I maintain a busy private therapy practice and am an affiliate counsellor for several EAPs, offering short-term, solution-focused counselling for workplace clients.
I have a special interest in supporting clients with disordered eating and bring this expertise into supervision where relevant.
My clinical background also includes working in a women-only NHS Talking Therapy centre, supporting clients with:
Complex trauma and abuse (including sexual abuse and domestic violence)
Depression, anxiety and stress
Bereavement and grief
Eating disorders and addiction
Chronic pain and physical health conditions
Anger management and emotional regulation
I previously worked at the University of Leeds for 7 years within Disability Services, as a Specialist Mentor for students with Autism, ADHD, chronic conditions and mental health diagnoses. This role focused on collaborative, developmental support—something I also aim to foster in supervision.
First supervision session
I offer an initial 15-minute consultation free of charge, giving us the chance to see whether we’re a good fit and discuss what you’re looking for in supervision.

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.
