A place to think deeply
about your practice.

Good supervision attends to the client, the practitioner and the relationship between them. It offers a way to examine clinical decisions while remaining interested in the less easily articulated elements of therapeutic work: uncertainty, emotional responses, impasses and what a relationship may be asking of us.

My supervision is suited to practitioners with foundational clinical skills who value self-reflection and want to develop greater relational awareness, clinical confidence and professional maturity.

We work with your questions in a collegial, thoughtful way. There is room for careful challenge, for not knowing, and for considering how your own experience enters the therapeutic encounter. We also consider what may be happening outside immediate awareness, including patterns that recur between client and practitioner or find expression in supervision.

Supervision can help you recognise more clearly what is happening in the work and how you are participating in it. Our focus may include:

• The therapeutic relationship, including moments of connection, distance, rupture and repair.
• Use of self: your emotional responses, assumptions, sensitivities and ways of relating.
• Emotional process and how to remain present when the work becomes uncertain or intense.
• Clinical formulation, ethical judgement and boundaries, with attention to family, cultural, organisational and wider systemic influences.
• Inner multiplicity: recognising the different parts of yourself that respond to a client, seek certainty, withdraw or take responsibility.
• Developing a professional voice and an approach that is coherent with your values.

My supervision is grounded in humanistic and relational values, integrating psychodynamic and systemic understanding with experiential attention to emotion and the use of self. Emotion-Focused Therapy and Voice Dialogue contribute to this way of working, helping us stay close to the lived experience behind a clinical account.

Group facilitation is a substantial area of my expertise. In clinical group supervision, I attend to participation, interpersonal dynamics and the conditions that allow thoughtful challenge and honest reflection. The group becomes a source of learning in its own right, alongside the clinical work being discussed.

Before we begin, we discuss your qualifications, current practice, supervisory needs and any professional requirements you need to meet. We also agree on confidentiality, responsibilities, frequency and the practical terms of supervision.

Group enquiries include consideration of experience, interests and fit with the learning environment. Current arrangements and availability are provided in response to your enquiry.

Recognition of supervision depends on the requirements of your professional body, employer or training program. These should be confirmed for your circumstances before commencing.
