Supervision details

Supporting clients with eating disorders can feel complex, high-risk, and at times professionally isolating. Many clinicians find themselves questioning whether they are doing enough, holding risk alone, or feeling unsure how to move a piece of work forward, especially when clients feel stuck, ambivalent, or medically vulnerable.

I offer specialist supervision for clinicians working with eating disorders, disordered eating, body image difficulties, and related presentations such as perfectionism, shame, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation. My aim is to provide a supervision space that feels both clinically robust and genuinely supportive, somewhere you can think clearly, challenge yourself safely, and feel less alone in the work.

Whether you are newly working with eating disorders or are an experienced clinician wanting a reflective specialist space, supervision can help you build confidence, strengthen formulations, and feel more grounded in your decision-making.

Supervision can be tailored to your needs and may include:

  • Developing and strengthening case formulations
  • Planning interventions and navigating stuck points in therapy
  • Building confidence with CBT, CBT-E, MANTRA, DBT/RO-DBT, chair work (Gestalt and Schema informed), and compassion-focused approaches
  • Assessing and managing physical risk and safety planning
  • Reflecting on therapeutic relationships, transference and countertransference
  • Supporting clinician wellbeing and preventing burnout
  • Professional mentorship and skill development

I am Health at Every Size (HAES) informed and particularly passionate about helping clinicians reflect on the impact of diet culture, weight stigma, and fat phobia within clinical work. This includes supporting clinicians to explore their own experiences, assumptions, and biases, and considering how these may show up in therapy especially when working with clients navigating body shame, weight stigma, or recovery from restrictive and binge-purge presentations.

I also value supporting clinicians with lived experience of eating disorders, helping them navigate the unique complexity this can bring to the therapeutic space with compassion and clarity.

Supervision is offered online at £130 per 60-minute session. Small group supervision can also be arranged by discussion.

If you are looking for a specialist supervision space that is warm, thoughtful, and clinically grounded, I would be very happy to hear from you.
