I am an experienced practitioner and supervisor with an extensive clinical background, I offer individual and group supervision to qualified and trainee counsellors/therapists. I welcome supervisees from diverse backgrounds practising in a variety of settings and informed by different modalities.
I bring clarity of intention to the supervisory relationship, with non-judgement and provide a positive space of acceptance and compassion, for inquiry, reflection and development. I believe a co-created supervisory alliance is central to experiencing a safe supportive space for safeguarding client and therapist, exploring client related concerns, ethical perspectives, counter transference, cultural questions/biases and technology mediated communication and whatever other issues the supervisee brings. As Clinical Lead of a CYP service and I have specialist experience of supervising counsellors and therapists who work with children and young people including trainee counsellor/therapists. I also work with adult clients. I have also supervised therapists working in adult client organisations/settings e.g. Substance use and misuse, RASASC, Domestic Violence, Further Education and therapists in private practice. My core psychotherapy training in Transactional Analysis and more recent trainings in Mindfulness in the Therapeutic Context, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Zen Teachings, Digital Therapy, Supervision and EMDR all of which inform my approach. I am a qualified BACP Senior Accredited Supervisor, ACTO Level 3 Professional Member, Digital Supervisor, MSc MBA, Qualified Mindfulness Teacher MBCT & MBSR, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy Therapist, CEOP Ambassador and Churchill Fellow. I welcome an initial no obligation session so that you can see if the way I work would be useful for you.
Mindfulness is a critical skill that provides the foundation for my approach
Becoming a mindful person will help anyone accept and tolerate life's challenges that they may have to deal with during day-to-day life. The principle of acceptance is central to this. This approach allows us to mentally slow down in life and focus on our experience and the positives around us, with practice we benefit from learning how to regulate our emotions, manage our feelings, decrease our vulnerability to any form of painful emotions caused by situations that are (often entirely) out of our control, no matter how stressful and negative a situation could become.
