Individual, group, online/Skype* and face-to-face supervision
In my private supervision practice I have particular interest and experience of working with trainees and new-to-practice professionals, although I also work with very experienced counsellors, psychotherapists, sex therapists, complementary therapists and mental health professionals from integrative, existential, Gestalt, person-centred and the various psychodynamic backgrounds. I also work with welfare officers and professionals in educational settings. I offer Skype* supervision to therapists all over the UK.
As professionals, we know that supervision helps us to reflect on and gain feedback and an alternative perspective about the content and process of casework. However, to my mind, supervision is also an encounter that offers validation and support both to a person and a professional. I see supervision as the ‘grown-up relationship’ of the therapy world with adult-to-adult dialogue that is both creative and collaborative. I feel that supervision also provides a place to rest the difficulties of your caseload so that you don't carry alone the unnecessary issues, problems and projections that arise from it. Additionally, supervision can help with effectively planning and utilising your personal and professional resources.
My supervision training was undertaken in an integrative model (validated by the Institute for Individual Psychology), and this allows me to work comfortably with many of the frameworks counsellors, psychotherapists and other mental health, complementary and educational professionals currently practise from.
I hold a broad portfolio of work as a supervisor, including being an experienced group and individual supervisor with experienced and trainee practitioners in my private practice. I also work for a number of counselling and educational institutions in and around Cambridgeshire and Suffolk.

*I use 'Skype' as a generic term for video-over-the-internet therapy and supervision. There could be possible security issues with the Skype platform when used for therapeutic uses, so please talk to me about these issues. If you have an Apple product that supports FaceTime, I prefer to use this as it is end-to-end encrypted. There are many other platforms available. Telephone is also seen as being secure for the purpose of therapy and supervision.
