Supervision details

Being a therapist can be hard, it's a big responsibility, a life-changing job, and sometimes we need support too.

This you-affirming approach is exactly what I offer in our supervision together.

Nurturing your wellbeing so that your clients can get the best of you.

If you'd like support with:

  • building your private practice
  • managing clients who trigger you
  • growing self-trust and confidence in your work

As well as being able to meet with someone who understands the current landscape of being a therapist who shows up online, who's familiar with working both with and against social media, who understands the big juggle that is managing your own chaotic human life as well as support other people's - I could be the right supervisor for you.

We might look at: imposter syndrome, preventing burnout, raising your fees, being the "fixer", and how to handle uncomfortable energies that might come up for you in the counselling room.

Each session I'll meet you where you are.

If you need a big personal vent before launching into client work, I'm here.

I'll always make sure I get to know YOU so that I can better understand how client work impacts you and how external influences might be affecting your job right now.

As a therapist, you ARE your job. So having that support is fundamental.

I  truly believe in supervision as an essential ingredient for providing good therapy, and am endlessly grateful for the support I have from my own.

I have a strictly therapist-only private Instagram account where I go into more detail about how I work: @supervisionwithellie

I am now taking on new supervisees, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Fees:

£60 / hr

£90 / 1.5 hours

For trainee / student therapists I can offer a discounted rate of £55/hour

I look forward to working together.

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.
