Supervision for counsellors/psychotherapists and professionals in related fields

About me and how I work

I have worked as a supervisor for 10 years. I offer supervision to counsellors and psychotherapists, and to other helping professionals such as psychologists, coaches, nurses and NHS managers (the latter relating to my PhD). Supervision with me often addresses the interface of the professional and personal. Conversations may be about confidence; decision-making; leadership; communication and interpersonal difficulties; progression; and/or discrimination, for example.

I'm interested in developing a collegial relationship with supervisees in which difficulties and triumphs may be freely discussed and learnt from.

Here is a copy of the Agreement that I tend to discuss with supervisees in a first session. It is information about how I work, including practicalities as well as my policy on upholding confidentiality, data protection and ethics.

Online sessions

I connect with supervisees online via Zoom.

Trainee therapists (supervisees)

With nearly three years' experience as a trainer on a Counselling BA/Diploma at the Metanoia Institute (Middlesex University) in London, I'm familiar with some of the hurdles of being a trainee, and the work involved.. Notwithstanding how different this terrain may be for each of us.

Fees

Per session I charge £65 - £85. I try to reserve the lower end of this spectrum for supervisees, but let's discuss if my full fee is not affordable.

Frequency and number of sessions

Many opt for fortnightly sessions. If we are not working on an ongoing basis I prefer to decide together the number of sessions.

Feeling comfortable

I encourage you to 'shop around' to find the right supervisor for you. I believe, and evidence suggests, that the relationship between you and your supervisor is the most important factor in meeting your aims.

Availability

I'm available Mondays to Thursdays, 9am to 8pm.
