Monday to Thursday: 9am to 7pm

Friday: 9am to 5pm

At times painful life experience, psychological wounding, loss and other challenging moments can lead to an internal fragmentation in which some parts of ourselves became more dominant and other parts became hidden. This splitting can manifest as lowering of energy, increased self-doubt, anxiety, addictive behaviour, low mood or a general sense of not feeling well in one's skin.

In therapy we will explore how this fragmentation occurred and focus on restoring your wholeness. By listening to the rejected and abandoned parts of your being, we will give these elements a voice, with the aim of recovering your balance and your inherent openness and relaxation.

I will assist you to:

• Understand (both cognitively, emotionally and somatically) how you got stuck
• See which unhelpful habits are contributing to your stuckness
• Clarify which thoughts, perceptions and views are helpful and unhelpful
• Experiment with new and more appropriate ways of perceiving yourself and the world
• Try out new ways of behaving and acting in the world leading to more satisfaction and fulfilment

The initial session will give you a sense of how I work, what my approach feels like, and to discuss the practical details of sessions such as frequency, payment and other practicalities. We will talk about your goals and get a clearer idea of the direction of therapy. There is no commitment at this point, and at the end of the session you can either decide to come back for more sessions, take some time to consider options or choose to work with somebody else.

My supervision practice is relational in its nature. A trusting and authentic relationship between the supervisor and supervisee will in turn support a trusting and authentic relationship between the counsellor and client. Within this open and transparent environment, complex ethical issues, emotionally challenging situations and contradictory needs of the counsellor can be safely explored. As trust develops, questions and dilemmas can be attended to without becoming overwhelmed or reactive. 

My main aim is to allow supervisees to be at ease and to experience the sessions as a place to find support and restore their energy and inspiration. When there is enough trust, supervisees can open up about their difficulties and obstacles. The more we're able to hold questions and difficulties with sensitivity, the more impactful and helpful the sessions can be. 

Supervision needs to be able to offer a space where emotional intensity arising from the therapeutic work can be held and contained by the supervisor. The non-judgmental and supportive space allows the supervisees to understand their reactions better and consequently understand the clients better.

Feel free to contact me for an initial supervision session. This meeting will give you a sense of how I work and what style of supervision you can expect. We will also discuss the practical details of sessions such as frequency, payment and other practicalities. We will talk about your needs in supervision and see how we could best work together.
