About me and my therapy practice
I am a Senior Accredited Supervisor of Groups, and I Supervise Counsellors and Trainee Counsellors individually.
I can Supervise EAP work, private work and can also Supervise Allied Professionals such as Teachers, Youth workers and anyone working therapeutically with adults.
I do not Supervise work with children.
Practice description
Much of my Supervision work is now online via Zoom or Teams within the UK only.
I can provide 1.5 hours or 1 hour if you also have other Supervisory input.
Group Supervision is also offered if required.
I work creatively in Supervision as well as being theory focused where needed.
Trainee Counsellors will get a reduced rate until qualifying.
My first session
After completing an application form Supervisees are provided with a Supervision contract outlining the terms of our Supervisory relationship.
An initial session is used to discuss the nature of the work being supervised and to discuss styles and types of supervision required.
