Supervision details
I am primarily a relationally informed and nature-based clinician and supervisor, being trained in Cognitive Analytic Therapy and Taking Therapy Outdoors. In addition, much of my work is informed by third-wave CBT approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy.
I am passionate about using creative and experiential approaches to support people with their mental health and wellbeing needs, indirectly through the supervision of those working therapeutically with them. I support my supervisees in developing confidence in delivering integrated psychological therapy to meet the holistic and individual needs of the people they are working with.
There is a growing body of evidence relating to the psychological and physical benefits of nature and the value of involving nature as a co-therapist and co-supervisor. Taking supervision outdoors or involving nature in the process, can be restorative and invigorating for clinicians.
I can offer supervision in a variety of settings including in person in my woodland garden clinic, outdoors in nature and online via zoom.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
