Supervision helps practitioners to keep their feet on the ground enabling them to be better counsellors and psychotherapists. It does this by providing a supportive environment through which to understand our clients’ needs by honestly exploring and working through issues that come up within the therapeutic relationship.
As an integrative psychotherapist and supervisor I am well placed to supervise the work of counsellors and psychotherapists from a number of different modalities. My approach is not dogmatic, rather like my own work, I use a variety of different approaches to understand the therapeutic relationship that has developed between you and your client.
Though integrative, I am deeply informed by relational psychoanalysis, the theoretical model underpinning how I understand my supervisee and the relationship that develops between therapist and client.
The supervisory relationship needs to be a safe and non-judgmental place in which to evaluate your practice. It is my aim to provide such a space to explore your own material in relation to your client work, and to encourage autonomy and responsibility in your practice.
My experience as a psychotherapist, trainer, and integrative theoretician enable me to offer supervision from this unique perspective. If you are interested in seeking counselling or psychotherapy supervision with me, please check my availability.
