Victoria Sharman

Hello, I am Victoria Sharman, a systemic psychotherapist who uses integrative approach to help with the challenges and excitement of engaging and cementing therapeutic relationship and alliance. I do this by offering  clinical supervision services.  With over 15 years of experience, I am renowned for my effective verbal and non-verbal communication skills as well as problem solving skills.

I provide qualified and trainee counsellors and psychotherapists with fortnightly and monthly consultative clinical supervision in support of their work with clients, and interpersonal relationship skills for challenges  in client work and within the workplace. I work within the BACP and UKCP ethical codes of good practice and the Professional Standards Authority.

My approach is to help support trainees ,qualified therapists in private practice or working for an organisation to develop their professional and personal skills in the workplace so that they are not only good therapists, but also valuable assets  for the business they work for. I aim to help  counsellors and psychotherapists operate effectively  in developing ethical therapeutic relationship with their clients individually or in multi-disciplinary teams with fortnightly or monthly consultative clinical supervision..  My aim is promote motivation,, vitality, and increase confidence to grow and achieve the  best prospects of progression in their chosen field of therapeutic practice.

The first session will be a brief discovery session. We would discuss the ways in which I can best support your needs in clinical supervision. We will also highlight key areas that we will work upon in our sessions.  We will develop contracting agreement  detailing what I can expect from you and what you can expect from supervision. 

I work within the BACP and UKCP ethical codes of good practice and the Professional Standards Authority.

During a counselling session with me, in person or online I will help you better manage and understand the emotional pain you may be experiencing. I will help you explore and be curious about the challenges and hurdles holding you back to realise learning around what you have lost about yourself with understanding and compassion. I aim to help relief suffering, distress, and increase self-esteem, confidence, and inner peace.

You can be helped to explore and be curious about the different stories you have about yourself, your thoughts, and emotions in a safe environment without fear of judgement or criticism. I practise active reflective and compassionate listening which will provide you with the warmth, patience, and professional guidance that you deserve towards self-healing.

The first session will be a brief discovery session. We would discuss the ways in which I can best support your needs in therapy. We will also highlight key areas that we will work upon in our sessions. Prior to the session I would request for you to complete an assessment form.
