I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Counselling Supervision with Distinction from the University of Central Lancashire, underpinning my commitment to delivering high quality, ethical and effective supervision.
With extensive experience as a clinical supervisor, including leading a service within an NHS Commissioned healthcare setting, I offer professional supervision for individuals and organisations working across mental health, counselling and education.
My work includes facilitating group supervision for counsellors, psychotherapists and nurses, and other healthcare professionals, alongside offering individual (one to one) supervision tailored to your professional and personal development.
I provide both clinical supervision and consultative supervision (supervision of supervision) within my private practice, as well as for organisations working in areas such as:
I specialise in supporting therapists working with bereavement and life limiting conditions as well as children and young people’s counselling supervision offering well informed, developmentally attuned supervision grounded in extensive experience. My background as a former teacher and my leadership as Head of Service of a Children’s Counselling Service enable me to bring depth of understanding to this field of work, supporting practitioners to feel confident, reflective and effective in their roles.
I support a wide range of practitioners at different stages of their careers, including:
I am approved by a number of local universities, to include the University of Cumbria, the University of Central Lancashire, Keele University, The University of Stafford and Shrewsbury College to supervise their counsellors in training.
I aim to create a warm, supportive, reflective space where supervisees feel safe to explore their work honestly and openly.
Supervision is tailored to meet:
My approach is informed by the Hawkins and Shohet model of Supervision, alongside a person-centred philosophy, ensuring that our work together remains collaborative, respectful and growth-orientated.
Within this professional relationship I also attend carefully to ethical responsibilities, professional standards, and safeguarding responsibilities, supporting you to practise safely, competently and with integrity.
Whether you are in training, newly qualified, or an experienced practitioner, supervision offers an opportunity to reflect, grow and strengthen your practice within a supportive and professional environment.
I offer a blended approach where needed, including sessions via zoom, telephone, in person and eco informed supervision incorporating walking and talking sessions in natural settings.
