* Not in this list? Contact me if you would like to arrange a one off or regular supervision, or if you would simply like to discuss how supervision can benefit you and your work.
All supervision is carried out in accordance with the BACP's guidance and ethical framework for counselling and psychotherapy, but may also incorporate other frameworks and guidelines, depending on your own membership of professional bodies.
Ways of working: I offer an integrative approach to supervision, which can incorporate creative methods or lean towards a specific theoretical orientation (for example, person centred or psychodynamic) depending on your own background, preferences and work setting. Your work setting in particular will also determine the model of supervision we will employ and what function supervision will have for you. For example, depending on your work setting, supervision might be more administrative, educational or supportive.
The following is a list of qualities that are important to me personally and that I would very much like to offer to you in supervision. In my own personal opinion, supervision should:
foster autonomy and confidence in supervisees
inspire rather than intimidate
provide a safe environment for supervisees and their clients
hold an appropriate balance between challenge and support
be flexible within a structured and secure framework
offer openness and empathy
be something to look forward to rather than a chore
incorporate ethics and good practise standards naturally and without these aspects being threatening to supervisees
allow supervisees to use some of the time to explore personal issues and theoretical aspects of their work, in addition to their client work
All supervision takes place online or over the telephone. You can find an up to date list of fees here.
Please do not hesitate to contact me for more information or in order to arrange one off or regular supervision. Alternatively, we can agree to meet for an informal chat first, or we can exchange some information via email. You can also telephone me on 01223 654 678 or on my mobile on 07923 239 660. I look forward to hearing from you.
