Supervision

I provide supervision for qualified counsellors and therapists, offering a supportive space for you to reflect on your client work and professional development. My approach is collaborative, focusing on creating a safe environment where you can explore challenges, celebrate successes, and grow in your practice.


How Supervision Works

Clinical supervision provides a confidential, structured professional relationship. It allows you to reflect on all aspects of the counselling relationship and any other factors that may impact your work.

The primary aim of supervision is to help you develop and enhance your skills, knowledge, and ethical judgment, empowering you to manage your casework with greater effectiveness.


Why Supervision is Essential

Ethical bodies such as the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapy (BACP) require all counsellors—whether trainees or qualified professionals—to maintain regular supervision. This is because supervision is a core component of ensuring safe, ethical, and effective practice throughout a practitioner's career.


My Approach as a Supervisor

As a qualified supervisor, I draw on my extensive experience as an integrative counsellor in private practice and through my work with Employee Assistance Programmes (EAP). My background includes roles in health and social care, as well as in a drug and alcohol agency.

I work exclusively with adults (18+) and have experience a wide range of issues, including:

• Anxiety and Depression

• Trauma

• Burnout

• Relationship Issues

• Low Self-Esteem

I am qualified to provide supervision for both in-person and online/remote work.


Introduction call

Before booking a paid session, you are welcome to schedule a free 20-minute introductory call by phone or online, with no obligation to continue. During the call, we can discuss what you’re looking for, what I can offer, and whether we are a good fit.

To arrange a call, please contact me directly. Please note that I do not offer in-person introductory consultations; they are conducted exclusively by telephone or online. All subsequent sessions are paid.


Face-to-Face Supervision

For those who prefer a dedicated, confidential space, I offer in-person supervision sessions at my office in Weymouth, Dorset.

• Session Length: Each session is 60 or 90 minutes long depending on your needs

• The office building is secured with CCTV and includes restroom facilities. My office is located on the first floor, accessible by both stairs and a lift.

• Free on-site parking is available. As the car park can be very busy during the day, I recommend arriving a few minutes early to ensure you find a space, as parking is subject to availability.


Online Supervision

For those who prefer the convenience of an online space, I offer supervision sessions via Google Meet.

• Session Length: Sessions are 60 or 90 minutes long.

• How it Works: Your sessions are conducted securely using Google Meet. I will email you a meeting link shortly before your scheduled appointment. Using a Desktop/Laptop or phone: Simply click the link to join the session directly from your web browser. No software download is required. You may be prompted to allow access to your microphone and camera (or speaker) before entering the session.

• Before your session, you will receive some initial paperwork: a brief assessment, and a counselling contract. These documents need to be completed before your session.


Availability

All appointments are subject to availability.

• Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday: Morning, afternoon and evening sessions are available (last appointment at 8:00 PM)

• Saturday: Mornings only

• Tuesday & Sunday: Closed

Please note that my response time may be delayed during the day while I am in sessions. I typically respond to messages received after 5:00 PM or overnight on the following business day. Responses on my non-working days (Tuesdays and Sundays) and Saturdays are limited, and inquiries will be addressed on the next working day.


Session frequency

We can discuss what frequency works best for you and your caseload. I offer monthly, bi-weekly, and weekly supervision sessions. Support between supervision sessions is also available if you face a challenging situation in your practice. We will discuss how this works when we decide to work together.


Fees and Payment

Supervision session 60 minute costs £55 and a 90 minute session costs £65.

• Payment is required at least 24 hours in advance of your scheduled session.

• The preferred method of payment is a secure bank transfer (BACS).

• Please note that I do not accept cash payments.

Full details for bank transfers will be provided in your supervision paperwork once we agree on a first session. • Discounts are available for trainee counsellors (e.g., Level 5 or Level 6).
