About me and my therapy practice

I am an experienced Counselling and Psychotherapy supervisor, who has supervised for the last 12 years and I am a trainer on a Masters level supervision course. I work relationally and holistically so can supervise practitioners within the humanistic and Integrative family:- Gestalt Therapists, Person-Centred counsellors, Humanistic and relational as well as Integrative practitioners, and I also have an understanding of transference and the medical model of mental illness. As well as supervising experienced practitioners I have also supervised counsellors and therapists in training, so understand the additional support and tasks involved with working supporting trainees, although I specialise in supervising experienced practitioners. I currently offer supervision over zoom for Leeds practitioners and in Lancaster face to face for those wailing to travel. I also offer group supervision.

Practice description

Supervision is an activity that covers a lot of territory. You will be requiring support for your work, and as such may need assistance in making sense of theory, looking into aspects of practice and developing techniques which you can use, and occasionally need help in how to overcome ‘stuckness’. Additionally you will be practicing how to be supported to offer support to your clients, as well as exploring the therapeutic relationship you have with your clients and possible transference issues, and how this can be mirrored in the supervisory relationship too. Supervision is also about you, the practitioner and person, and exploring and uncovering the issues and aspects of you which are being stimulated through your client work or which old wounds are being opened up. I hope to offer a space where you can bring your best and your worst, and for it to be a supportive, growthful and challenging space where you can really develop your therapeutic practice.

My first session

In your first session, I will be open as to what your immediate supervision needs are, so you get the support you need initially as well as paying attention to see if our relationship is what is needed to sustain longer term ongoing professional support for you. I feel that we have to give this openness room, so we can really experience if we want to work with each other longer term, and for you to also explore your wants and needs and doubts as well as meeting your immediate supervision needs.
