Supervision details

About My Supervision Practice

Welcome. As an established therapist and founder of Routes to Wellness, I understand that clinical excellence isn’t built on rigid checklists; it is built on strong relationships, clear thinking, and the permission to be completely authentic.

In private practice, we often speak about clients wearing a "mask" to appear calm and capable while battling hidden pressure. As therapists, we can easily fall into the same trap, feeling the pressure to look fully formed, flawless, and completely unfazed. My supervisory space is designed to be the antidote to that pressure. I offer a warm, confidential, and deeply collaborative environment where you can drop the filter, ask the honest questions, and safely explore your vulnerabilities.

Whether you are a trainee navigating your first clinical placements or an experienced practitioner managing a complex caseload, my goal is to walk alongside you. Together, we will protect your well-being, prevent burnout, and support you in growing into the confident, ethically robust clinician you want to be.

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.
