About me and my therapy practice

As a supervisor, I encourage you to reflect on your process and how you react to your clients and what they are bringing to their sessions with you. I am facilitative and will support you to find the insight within you which will ultimately aid your clients and help you to retain your autonomy within a supportive supervisory relationship.

I can offer creative supervision (metaphors used in verbal activities or in art and sand work) to aid you to go deeper and to release the knowledge within.

I am a play and creative arts therapist and particularly welcome supervisees who work with children and young people.

Practice description

I work with children and their families who have experienced challenging times. I often work with children who have been abused or are in care, Special Guardianship or who are adopted. I am primarily a play and creative arts therapist and use DDP principles in my work with families. I am happy to supervise other therapists who work with children and their families.

Within supervision I will offer creative activities and metaphoric conversations to encourage you to go deeper. Supervision will be supportive and may be challenging too. It should help you to grow as a therapist and refresh your work.

I offer supervision in person or online.

My first session

Before your first session I will meet with you, usually online, to see if we both feel we can work well together. It is important that you feel safe with your supervisor so that you can be vulnerable about the difficuties you may sometimes face in your work. It is important that I feel we can work together well too.

We will then talk about your work and what you hope supervision will be for you. 

When we have made a decision to start working together we will contract the supervisory relationship and book in the first few sessions. 

Annually, I will ask you to review our supervision and make any suggestions for change. You are welcome to bring any isues about supervision to any session and are encouraged to raise anything you are not comfortable with straight away so that we can reflect together and find a resolution which suits us both.
