Supervision- A collaborative space to explore, reflect and grow as a practitioner.

I am a Person‑Centred counsellor and qualified clinical supervisor with extensive experience working across the voluntary sector, education and community settings. My clinical background includes supporting children, young people and adults with a wide range of emotional, behavioural and relational difficulties, and this informs the depth and sensitivity I bring to supervision.

My supervision practice is grounded in the core conditions of empathy, authenticity and unconditional positive regard. I offer a reflective, ethically‑attuned space, with a gentle blend of creative approaches to support deeper exploration and fresh perspectives. 

My approach is collaborative, supporting supervisees to build confidence, deepen self‑awareness and sustain themselves in their practice.  Practitioners can openly reflect and explore their client work, strengthen their therapeutic presence and remain connected to their professional values

I have experience supervising trainees, newly‑qualified and experienced practitioners. I also hold specialist training in online and telephone supervision. My aim is to provide a supportive, containing environment that promotes safe, ethical and relationally‑focused therapeutic work.

Following your initial enquiry, I offer a free 30‑minute consultation, held online or by telephone. This introductory meeting provides an opportunity for us to discuss your supervision needs, explore our respective ways of working and consider whether we are a good professional fit.

The consultation is designed to support you in making an informed decision when choosing a supervisor. It allows space for questions, expectations and any practical considerations, helping us establish whether and how we may proceed together.
