Please be aware I am not currently taking on new clients

The service I provide offers clients an opportunity to talk in confidence to someone who has a professional understanding of emotional difficulties. My aim is to support you to develop greater insight into the issues that are bothering you and facilitate the discovery of possible new ways of dealing with them. I will not judge you or try to influence your decisions in any way but instead will respect your ability to make your own choices in finding ways to move forward. I understand that the decision to come to counselling is a big commitment in time, money and emotion. Therefore, it is important to me that you feel as fully informed and as comfortable as possible in making that decision. An initial appointment will give you the chance to get a sense of what it might be like to work with me and although this session is subject to the usual fee, you are under no obligation to continue, should you choose not to do so. If you would like to discuss things further, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I am also UKCP registered. 

I do not currently have any supervision places 

Supervision statement

I hold a Post- Graduate Certificate (2017) in Counselling Supervision and offer supervision to individual practitioners qualified to diploma level or above who belong to a professional body such as Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ or UKCP. Fees are £50 per 60 minute session.

My role as supervisor

My aim as a supervisor is to engage in a relational exploration of the supervisee's experience of their work in line with my Humanistic stance as a therapist. I focus on relationships between supervisee and client, supervisee and therapy context and supervisee and myself, whilst being respectful of the client's story. My intention is to facilitate a process which is collaborative, relevant and beneficial. I take seriously my role as "gate keeper" to the profession in terms of awareness of good practice guidelines and the ethical protection of clients. However, I hope to support a move away from reliance on external evaluation and encourage supervisees' development of an internal measure of their professional capabilities and responsibilities. I see supervision as a space for reflection, an opportunity for mutual learning and a chance to celebrate what's been done well.

Please contact me to arrange an initial "mutual assessment" appointment

This is free of charge and I would anticipate lasting approximately 1 hour. Fees thereafter are £50 per hour or £70 per 90 minute session.
