I offer a few clients concessionary rates where possible (students or the unwaged).   Please contact me for more information.

I also offer clinical supervision to trainee counsellors and fully qualified counsellors.

I am providing clinical supervision for trainee counsellors at level 4, recently qualified counsellors and experienced counsellors. 

I ask that you have professional indemnity insurance (either personally or via the organisation that you work for) and that you are a member of a professional organisation such as Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ and abide by its code of ethics. 

My therapy room is based in Broughton Astley, South Leicestershire for those choosing face to face and I also offer online supervision.

I am a person centred counsellor with over 18 years experience working with adults, couples and young people (from 10 years of age upwards).  I also have training in CBT and TA. 

Effective counselling relies on the emotional health, wellbeing and development of the counsellor and clinical supervision helps to maintain this.  Supervision helps the therapist to reflect on their own feelings, thoughts, behaviour and general approach with the client.

I am trained in using the Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision.  The seven eyes refer to seven different ways of looking at the client's presentation and related relationships.  I am also trained in using IPR (Interpersonal Process Recall).  IPR helps increase awareness of covert thoughts and feelings of the client and self in the here and now during supervision which can bring clarity and potentially deepen the relationship between yourself and your client(s).

An important factor in clinical supervision is the match between supervisor and supervisee.  I aim to create an environment where you feel safe enough to bring all aspects of your work. 

I will work collaboratively with you supporting you to grow and develop through exploration of your client work and the relationship with your client(s). The aim being to enhance your skills, competence and confidence as a practitioner and also to ensure that professional ethical standards and safe practice are maintained throughout.

I believe that supervision is a combination of support and challenge and the balance will vary depending upon where you are in your own professional development.

I work to the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ Code of Ethics, receiving monthly supervision in accordance with them.  I am a Registered Member of Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ, currently DBS Enhanced checked and approved as well as ICO registered and fully insured.
