CLINICAL SUPERVISION

I offer individual and group clinical supervision for both trainee counsellors and psychotherapists, as well as qualified practitioners.

I approach supervision as a formal, professional and confidential working relationship in which both supervisor and supervisee(s) collaborate in order to maximise the competence and effectiveness of the supervisee on behalf of those they are working with.

INDIVIDUAL CLINICAL SUPERVISION

As supervisor, it is my job to create a safe, confidential and supportive environment in which you, the supervisee, can freely explore what has emerged in your work/relationship with clients/patients.

Encouragement, constructive feedback and challenge of the material presented in supervision are on-going and crucial aspects of the process.

In my practice as a supervisor, I place particular emphasis on issues arising through the transference and the parallel process.

As an integrative practitioner, I aim to meet supervisees in their own modality or modalities. If unsure about compatibility of approach, I would be happy to have an initial telephone discussion prior to booking a first appointment.

GROUP CLINICAL SUPERVISION

Currently I work with groups averaging between 4-6 members. Group supervision provides opportunity for exploration of the material presented using a participative approach, where members are invited to share thoughts, insights, feelings and impressions within which intra-psychic material can be held and processed.

I am experienced in working with both trainees and qualified practitioners, and as with individual 1:1 supervision, can work with groups made up of members at varying stages of training and experience and working from varying modalities.
