Supervision details

I offer 1-2-1 online supervision for 60 or 90 minutes on weekdays.

Working hours are flexible from 10.15am to 8.30pm.

I offer supervision services for professionals working with adolescents/young people.

The overall purpose of supervision is firstly to monitor and promote the welfare of the young people you work with. However, I will not forget you in this, meaning I will consider your needs in this process.

My supervision style is reflective, supportive, and tailored to each supervisee’s professional development. Drawing on my integrative background, I offer guidance on therapeutic techniques, case formulations, and ethical dilemmas, while fostering a space for growth and skill enhancement. I encourage a collaborative supervisory relationship, supporting professionals in refining their practice with young people through:

- Exploring relationships and dynamics

- Navigating complex trauma and sensitive topics

- Managing the nuances of working with neurodivergent and SEMH populations

I have a background in both private practice and institutional settings. My integrative practice draws from relational psychodynamic counselling, systemic therapy, CBT, and third-wave approaches, ensuring a well-rounded and adaptable supervision experience.

I have worked with young people across various settings, including private practice, schools, and charitable organisations. This includes managing and delivering counselling services for secondary school students with additional needs, such as neurodiversity, social-emotional challenges, and learning disabilities. I have worked as a teacher and safeguarding lead. Additionally, I have provided training for professionals who work with young people on key topics such as:

- Building effective relationships and communication

- Recognising and addressing harmful sexual behaviours

- Managing and navigating the escalation cycle effectively

Practice description
Our first session will last 30 minutes and it will be free; it is an opportunity for you to tell me about your work and supervision needs. 

This will be a space for you to ask me questions and to find out whether we are the right 'fit' for working together.

My first session
In our first session, I will go through issues around confidentiality, safeguarding time and payment, and between us, we can then make a working agreement. This will outline what we have discussed.

In our ongoing sessions, what you bring to supervision is up to you. It may be an organisational issue, a piece of individual work or thinking more broadly about a number of issues.

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.

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.
