What is supervision?

Supervision is 'a working alliance between a supervisor and a counsellor in which the counsellor can offer an account or recording of (their) work; reflect on it; receive feedback and, where appropriate, guidance. The object of this alliance is to enable the counsellor to gain in ethical competence, confidence, compassion and creativity so as to give (their) best possible service to (the) client'

(Inskipp and Proctor).

​

My supervision practice is integrative, and is a collaborative relationship based on equality, mutual trust, safety, and ethical importance. It enables processing of feelings and ways of working with clients, and is intended to be normative, formative and restorative.  It is a place of learning, insight, growth, and professional development, where mistakes can be worked through without shame or blame.  Hopefully you will also find it to be enjoyable and celebratory.

Training

I am training towards a Post Graduate Diploma in Supervision, which enables me to have the necessary skills, knowledge, and professional development to provide supervisory support and guidance to counsellors in clinical practice.
