I provide individual and group supervision for counsellors-in-training, newly qualified and experienced counsellors. I also provide supervision for specialist mentors and  support staff working in sixth form colleges and universities.

​

I have personal and professional experience of autism, together with a Master’s in autism where I researched counselling for young people with Asperger's Syndrome. 

As a counsellor, I work within the pluralistic framework which is relational and collaborative, and encourages the integration of theory, principles and methods from different modalities, in my case combining my knowledge of humanistic, existential and CBT therapies.  I take the same approach when working as a supervisor.  My training is in the Hawkins and Shohet model which works across different modalities, placing the supervisory relationship at the centre in a way that is collaborative and facilitative.  

I am currently working as a group supervisor in a counselling agency and as an individual supervisor in private practice, supervising counsellors, specialist mentors and wellbeing advisers. 

I have worked as a supervisor in voluntary and paid-for services supervising counsellors working with adults as well as those working with young people.  I have experience of supervising counsellors working in long-term, open-ended counselling where the focus is often on relationships, childhood trauma and attachment issues together with experience supervising counsellors working with young people in FE and youth counselling agencies where the work is more goal-oriented and solution-focused, often within the short-term (6 week) model.
