About me and my therapy practice

I aim to offer a supportive, constructive, reflective and creative space in supervision for you to explore your work and its impact on you.  I take an integrative approach, which is based on a humanistic view of relationship, informed by systemic and psychodynamic thinking.  In supervision I find the seven-eyed model very helpful, but also use the cyclical model, which can work well with large caseloads or in groups.

While I have worked extensively with adult clients in various settings including private practice, I also have particular experience of supervising therapists working with children and young people, including play therapists and school based counsellors.   Having worked in schools for several organisations, as a counsellor, supervisor and counselling project manager, I have a good understanding of the systemic issues that can present when working in these settings. 

I find that using creative techniques can be so helpful and, if you are interested in doing, would support you to explore this way of working in supervision.  If you are able to attend in person, I have a large and well-equipped and comfortable room which contains art materials, a sand tray and other resources.

Practice description

I am a qualified supervisor, who enjoys working creatively.  I have a PostGraduate Diploma in Consultative Supervision from University of South Wales and experience of supervising both qualified and trainee counsellors, working with a broad range of issues.  I also taught counselling at degree level for several years.

I am always happy to meet prospective supervisees for an exploratory session, to get a sense of whether we might be able to work together.  Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss this further.  

I charge £50-£60 per hour for supervision and can offer concessionary rates to trainee therapists or if you are working on a very low income - please ask for details.
