Katy Reid

Online:

I currently have availability online on Monday evenings between 7-9pm or on a Friday afternoon from 3pm- 5pm.

Face-to-face:

I currently have availability on a Wednesday evening at 6pm or 7.45pm from my premises in Chelmsford, Essex. 

I am a Level 6 qualified supervisor. In my role as a clinical supervisor, I integrate what's sometimes referred to as the functions model and the seven-eyed model. I'm happy to work creatively which I know is something supervisees appreciate. I work with a lot of my supervisees online which suits our needs and I enjoy working face-to-face from premises in Chelmsford, Essex.

You can expect a supervisor who promotes ethical practice. integrity, curiosity, creativity and who will work with you to get the best of the supervisory relationship.

I've worked with supervisees across the UK and Scotland and generally work with supervisees online. I have experience of working with supervisees who are neurodiverse. I have experience of working with supervisees in their EAP work, charity work and private practice.

My supervision style will vary depending on your goals for supervision but my aim is to work in a collaborative way rather than me adopting a prescriptive way of working which could impact your autonomy.

I work in a person-centred way for the most part and will work to support you in your practice in a space of both holding and challenging.

The first session will be spent exploring how we both work and what we both expect from one another in order that we can decide if we think we might be able to work with each other potentially on a long term basis. For example, I will ask some open questions to gather information about your clinical practice to understand what you are looking for in a supervisor and whether I think I 'fit the bill'. 

Face to face:

I currently have availability on Wednesdays at 6pm or 7pm.

Online:

I have availability for online counselling on a Friday afternoon from 3pm - 5pm.

I am an integrative counsellor- this means I work from a person centred foundation which I think is important to building hopefully a honest and genuine relationship. 

I have many years experience of working with survivors of domestic abuse which included physical, emotional (psychological), sexual and financial abuse. In addition, I have experience of working with trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, separation, parental alienation, egg donation and fertility.

I am a member of BICA (British Infertility Counselling Association). My particular areas of interest are domestic abuse and fertility.

As a member of BACP, I take my commitment to providing ethical practice seriously. Mental health is so important - it is worth investing in and equally as important is finding a counsellor who you think is a good fit for you.

I am able to offer student rates plus concessionary rates to individuals about to undergo or undergoing fertility treatment, especially those with a history of domestic abuse.

I can offer sessions either online (Zoom) or face-to-face close to Chelmsford City centre in Essex.

Our first session will be spent exploring what you would like to achieve and how we might achieve it together. I can tell you more about how we might work together and you can ask any questions you have.
