About me and my therapy practice

I am an experienced therapist with extensive knowledge in working with men, women, couples and adolescents. I specialise in working with men and boys who often struggle to express a full range of emotions. In creating an empathic rapport and contact my work with boys and men often creates emotional growth and movement.(Please see my website for further information) My experience and knowledge in masculinity issues is often very significant in resolving relational and communication issues in couple and family work. Additionally I also work effectively with women (please see the specific page on my website) on a range of issues.

About me and my therapy practice

Counsellors and Psychotherapists are required to have supervision every month for them to practice ethically and competently. This work will always be with a more experienced psychotherapist and trained supervisor, who will enable you to review your practice with clients. Supervision will focus on the interactions between supervisor, counsellor and client. 

The aim is to enhance best practice, build on strengths and address developmental areas. Supervision will support and enhance the individual’s professional and organisational objectives which may include: following best practice, adhering to an ethical framework, accountability, personal support and growth, and continual professional development. All of this is based on confidentiality.

My supervision model is based on Shohet and Hawkins’ work described in their book – ‘Supervision in the helping professions’ (2012). They refer to the … the ‘seven eyes’ which describe the seven different ways of looking at the client presentation and related relationships. 

THE SEVEN EYES FOCUS ON:

Client details – understanding context

Supervisee’s interventions

Client–supervisee relationship

Supervisee’s own experiences of being with the client

Supervisor–supervisee relationship

Supervisor’s own reflections
