Supervision

I am a counsellor with a small private practice working with private clients and EAP clients. My core modality is Person-Centred, but I am also experienced in Solution Focused Brief Therapy work. I work with adult clients age 18+. 

Currently my work is mostly online or over the telephone, but I have experience of working face to face with clients in my private practice, during my placement with Mid Kent Mind, and as a volunteer counsellor with another low-cost local counselling project. 

Through my EAP work, I have worked with a wide variety of client issues including anxiety, bereavement, depression, trauma and relationships but my areas of special interest are work-related issues which at surface level may present as work-life balance, anxiety or stress but can often involve deeper issues such as self-confidence, conditions of worth, patterns of relating, neurodiversity and perimenopause/menopause.

I am passionate about supporting my counselling clients through their journeys of self-discovery, self-care and change and have appreciated the value of good, supportive and encouraging supervision alongside my work. While holding my clients' clinical safety at the heart of our supervision, my supervisors have also:

​

* provided guidance in setting up a private practice,

* helped me to understand my developmental needs as a counsellor and signposted CPD,

* offered valuable insights and different perspectives on my clients and my work with them, 

* encouraged me to develop my own internal supervisor, 

* offered gentle challenge, often leading to more deeper self-reflection and understanding of myself and my process,

* Supported me in developing self-care to prevent burnout.

​

I have also been blessed with supervisors who I felt have seen me as a whole person, not just as a counselling supervisee. This is how I hope to support my supervisees with the aid of my training in the Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision.

While I complete my placement hours I am offering a reduced fee for both trainee counsellors and qualified counsellors. I will continue to offer a reduced fee for trainee counsellors once I am fully qualified as I appreciate how expensive the training can be.

Please get in touch for a chat to see if we might be a good fit, and to discuss your supervision needs as I may be able to offer time slots outside of my regular listed hours.
