Online Supervisor Profile

Integrative (person-centred at core) online supervisor, based in East Lothian, Scotland. Video sessions using Zoom.

My core model for counselling supervision is the 7 eyed supervision model by Peter Hawkins. It is a relational and systemic model enabling us to look with a number of different ‘eyes’ or perspectives on your client work.

I have been qualified as a counsellor for 13 years in a wide range of settings so I am comfortable working with everyone from trainee counsellors to those who are very experienced. I love and highly value supervision, both as a supervisee and a supervisor – it’s not just a ‘tick box’ exercise – and am keen to work with supervisees who feel, or want to feel, the same. I aim to foster a warm, supportive, compassionate, curious, collegiate relationship where we reflect, explore, co-create ideas and paths forward together, and where you can bring the whole of who you are. For example, it’s more than ok if a session includes laughter, dark humour and swear words if that’s you!

Qualifications/Experience

I have a (Level 6) Advanced Certificate in Clinical Supervision Including Online and Telephone Working, awarded by Counselling Tutor, April 2022.

I also worked in the NHS for a decade, mentoring many counselling trainees in a Placement Manager role as part of this role.

Depression, anxiety, NHS work, private practice, relationship counselling, trauma, bereavement/loss, postnatal depression, transitions, love working with diverse clients (including neurodiversity, alternative lifestyles) and supervisees.

My core model for counselling supervision is the 7 eyed supervision model by Peter Hawkins. It is a relational and systemic model enabling us to look with a number of different ‘eyes’ or perspectives on your client work.

My counselling approach is person-centred at core, however my postgraduate training was person-centred and psychodynamic and I have training in relationship counselling from Relationships Scotland (equivalent of Relate in Scotland). I may also use psychoeducational resources, CBT resources, mindfulness/meditation/relaxation techniques and breathwork.
