Supervision details
Overview of how I work
Supportive supervision
I see supervision of other therapists both as a holding and professional space, where two therapists can collaborate in the wellbeing of clients.
I embody and may offer my knowledge and clinical experience as we work together. As it feels appropriate, I may also offer creative methods to help you explore deeper into your practice experience.
As we co-create opportunities to being reflexive and attentive to all the aspects of life that might inform the work with clients, we may notice where professional experiences meet with more personal ones. This is an opportunity for both personal and professional growth.
I value the importance of supervision in upholding ethical standards and good practice and aim to openly talk about these with you.
My background in therapeutic practice
I originally trained in the dialogue between the psychodynamic and person-centred approaches, completing it with a Masters’ degree.
After gaining a few years of clinical practice experience in various charity services, including the more generic agency, PF, also Edinburgh Rape Crises Centre, CRUSE Bereavement Scotland, and Place2B, I then fully engaged in the post-qualifying and in-depth training in Emotion-Focused Therapy at Strathclyde with Dr Robert Elliot, then also in Salomons in Tunbridge Wells, with Dr Lesley Greenberg.
Later, I trained in Emotion-Focused Therapy for Complex Trauma with Dr Sandra Paivio.
I am now accredited in Emotion-Focused Therapy, which is a very long and video-evidence and graded competence-based assessment process.
I have been helping the EFT trainings at Strathclyde facilitating Skills Practice.
Practice Description
Opportunity for Extra-supervision
I completed my training in Clinical Supervision at Diploma level in Newcastle, at the Northern Guild for Psychotherapy and Counselling.
I have a couple more spaces for free and time-limited supervision with new supervisees, as I complete my hours to become fully qualified.
If you would like to get in touch via email, we can then arrange a meeting to explore both our suitability and potential availability to work together.

MBACP (Accred.), MCouns, Emotion-Focused Therapist (Accred.), Clinical Trainee Supervisor (UKCP), EMDR (in training).
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.
