About me and my therapy practice

I am working as a Supervisor of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and offering low-cost Supervision online.

I will be applying and working with a range of Supervision models to include the Seven Eyed model as well as offering an intuitive way of working with you helping to support you in your own Counselling Practice.

The Supervisory relationship as we are aware is an essential part of our client work, and working together involves commitment and staying with what arises in order to support your client work and to bring insights and awareness of what is happening in the client-therapist relationship and using the Supervisory relationship to unravel and clarify what is happening.  I will be attuned not only to you but to what is happening between you and I, offering suggestions through transference and projection.  I will be offering you an objective perspective from different angles to help to inform you of what is happening in your client work.

I offer a relational way of working with you, my attention will be focused on you as a Counsellor and how to support you in unravelling any issues that you are experiencing in your client work and suggest ways forward that are supportive of you and the way in which you work.

I will be abiding by the BACP ethical framework and supporting you and your client work within this framework. We work collaboratively together, discussing all aspects of your work and allowing space for each client that you bring to the session. It is a place for you to bring and share your concerns with any areas of your work, discuss yourself as a Practitioner, your future hopes in further trainings. All areas are welcome with the aim of creating your responsibility to yourself and your clients as a Practitioner and feeling confident in the work that you are doing.

Practice description

I have a Professional and relational approach within a Supervisory setting.  You can expect me to be committed to you and your client work offering you a space to discuss and explore your client work freely.  

I will work consistently with you, offering a range of Supervision models to support you within your client work.  If I do not know about something that you have asked, or something that has arisen,I will research this and reach out to other Professionals to gain this knowledge if necessary.

We will meet weekly and at a time agreed upon before by both of us.  This will be our regular commitment.  We will have a contract between us that will be our referral point throughout our time together.

I will encourage you to bring your clients and any concerns that you have, this is where the work lies and can help to resolve many issues that you are facing with your clients and help to bring about change within the work that you are doing with a client.

I will be able to support you in signposting you towards your own personal therapy when you have identified an issue that has come up from a client session in Supervision.

I have my own Supervisor who I will take the work between you and I to discuss with them.

About me and my therapy practice

Hello and a warm Welcome

I am an experienced Counsellor/Psychotherapist working for many years in Private Practice and different Mental Health settings. This has informed my Practice and how I work.  My Trainings are in both Counselling and in Psychotherapy, therefore I am able to offer a wide range of modalities and can work with you in depth.  I am passionate about the work I do and I believe that with commitment on both sides and a belief in the process, therapy can bring about great change within yourself, how you feel about yourself and changes in your external life.

I offer a safe and compassionate way of working.  I believe that the therapeutic relationship is key in supporting you as you address what is going on in your life that has brought you into therapy.  Please do ask if you'd like to book in an initial session to meet with myself and have an experience of what it would be like to work with me.  This can be a helpful first step as well for you to take if you are hesitant in how to approach starting therapy and whether you feel you would like to embark upon the therapeutic process with me.

I am non-judgmental in my approach to what you share, and I hold what you say with respect, regard and curiosity.  I will ask you questions to deepen your awareness of what is going on for you.  I go at your pace, it is important that you feel that you are able to speak freely about your experience with me.  It can be an invaluable process for you to undertake for yourself and I am fully committed to you and your process whilst we work together.

I work Integratively that means I have been trained in  different therapy models and I will integrate these into our work together both intuitively and what feel right to offer to you.  I believe that we are each unique and therefore finding approaches that work and fit you and your experience is an important and integral part of the process.  These can also include Mindfulness and Meditation Practices.

Practice description

I offer short-term, medium-term and long-term Counselling and Psychotherapy online at present..  This will be discussed at the start of therapy in terms of what you need.  

The frequency of sessions will also be discussed during the initial meeting.  I recommend a consistent commitment to therapy, this is what I find is the most supportive for you giving you the opportunity for reflection in between sessions and to bring back any discoveries about yourself that you have made outside of therapy.  

I work in many areas including Complex PTSD/Developmental Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Narcissistic Abuse and Family Scapegoat Abuse, Loneliness, Childless-ness, Addiction, Trauma and PTSD, Divorce, Work-place issues, Bereavement, Grief, Loss.

Sessions are 50 minutes.

I attend regular CPD course and undertake different trainings to support my client work and keep me up to date in advances being made in the ever-growing therapy world.

I abide by and am regulated by the BACP.

I am fully insured and DBS checked.

I take regular breaks throughout the year, giving you advance notice of when I do.



My first session

In the first session, once you and I have committed to working together, I will take an Assessment of you that will help me to understand different information about your life.  This usually takes a session and is a way too of easing you gently into talking about yourself.  It can be a helpful and informative process for you too, talking about areas of your life that you perhaps hadn't given thought to and can form a base for our work together.

The Assessment is Confidential and will not be shared with anyone else.  This session will be 50 minutes as are the following sessions.
