About me and my therapy practice

As a counsellor with over 20 years's experience in various settings (schools, universities, community mental health, charities and the NHS), I know how important it is to have a supervisor who shows genuine interest in you and your client work. Getting to know what makes you unique is a key focus of mine, so I can understand the rewards and challenges of your counselling work. My main specialist and interest areas are: relationships, identity (including sexuality and gender identity), depression, life change transitions, coping with illness, and grief.

I have experience in the following theoretical models: person-centred/humanistic, systemic, interpersonal psychotherapy, solution-focused therapy, couples theories.

You bring your client work, and your observations, questions, concerns or things you feel proud to share, and I will bring my experiences, training and enthusiastic curiosity. Together we will collaborate to keep you focused, engaged and supported so that you can provide the best service to your clients.

I use the 7 Eyed Model of Supervision developed by Shohet and Hawkins, and I add my own creative ideas to help you consider different aspects of your work. This might involve using imagery in our discussions, or even finding ways to creatively represent elements you are finding challenging. If you are a visual person, or if you enjoy exploring art (either by doing it or just viewing it) we might be a good fit. There may be ways we can bring the natural world into our discussions, if that appeals to you. I have many ideas, and I will offer these to you, but they are all optional and ultimately, you can choose what will work best for you.

Please contact me if you would like to arrange a Zoom call to check if we might work well together. I am really looking forward to supporting you!

Practice description

Initially we would arrange a 15-30 min Zoom or phone call so that we can find out a bit about each other and see if we might be a good fit.  Before this call, I will send you an information sheet about me so you can ask further questions.  I will ask about your training and experience and current context of your work and also about what you are hoping for from supervision (both the practical expectations and what you'd like to happen).

If we decide to proceed then I would send you a supervision contract to read, complete key information and sign.  If you are a student, we would ensure that any other contract with your training provider is completed at this stage and I may have some questions about any other requirements.

If you like to have structure, I can provide a template to help you prepare for our supervision sessions, which typically would be 1.5 hrs each month.

Although I do work creatively at times, this is not always suitable, and it is not a requirement.  We would collaborate to find an approach that works for you.
