Online supervisor
I am a CPCAB Level 6 therapeutic counselling supervisor, working online to offer a space for meaningful and reflective discussion about your client work, whilst also supporting your professional and personal development. My approach is grounded in the Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision, providing a collaborative, reflective, curious and relational experience. I also incorporate the Working Within Diversity model into the work.
My therapeutic approach is integrative, primarily drawing on person-centred and psychodynamic therapy. I am trauma-informed in my practice and have completed training in EMDR therapy, which informs my understanding of trauma and its impact.
I have been qualified as a therapist for over 8 years. Alongside my private practice, I have extensive experience supporting survivors of sexual violence and abuse after working with Manchester Rape Crisis for 4 years. I have also worked for Employee Assistance Programmes, a low-cost counselling service and for the charity Blue Light Minds, which provides therapy to frontline workers. My experience as a therapist spans both short-term and long-term work, delivered face-to-face and remotely. This means that as a counselling supervisor, I understand different therapeutic contexts and settings.
I qualified as an online supervisor this year, and have experience working with trainee counsellors through to qualified and experienced counsellors. If we work together, I will encourage and support you in developing your clinical insight, confidence, and professional identity, while maintaining a strong focus on client well-being and safe, ethical practice. At the start of working together, we will discuss the type of client work you are undertaking, your level of training and professional role, your learning style, and what you most need from supervision.
We would co-create a supervision space that feels encouraging, supportive, challenging, insightful, curious and creative, where you feel brave enough to share whatever you need to share without fear of judgment.
