I have been working as a counsellor for over 25 years, and qualified as a counselling supervisor in 1998. As a supervisor I work with individuals and groups, experienced therapists and students, in private practice and for organisations.

My initial counselling training and my training as a supervisor were person-centred and my work has become more and more grounded in/by this rich and growing tradition. As a counsellor trainer in universities (1999-2017) an ongoing engagement with theory and research has both informed my own practice and supported me in supervising fellow practitioners. This experience has also given me an awareness of the needs of trainee counsellors and an enjoyment of working with them in supervision.

As a supervisor my aim is to offer a warm, boundaried space in which you can explore your client work and ongoing personal and professional development as a practitioner. Working with your awareness of what needs attention, I will support you to consider your own process in your therapeutic relationships, and help you to think about the therapeutic process as it may be for your clients, in terms of the theories that inform your practice. I will offer perspectives from my own experience and the wider professional context as this feels helpful.

I have experience of supervising person-centred and integrative practitioners and also service managers and users of counselling skills. I believe that we can be helpful to clients in quite different ways but that we are safest and probably most effective when we reflect on our rationale for what we ‘do’ (and don’t do) and are reflexive in our work; a supervision relationship in which we are responded to attentively, congruently and respectfully, where we can be honest and explore freely, helps make space for this. 

Practice based in NR8 and Norwich city centre.

 I am see supervisees face to face and also offer online or telephone sessions.
