Clinical Supervision | Thoughtful conversations for curious practitioners

What excites me about supervision is the opportunity for thoughtful conversations, shared curiosity and those moments when looking at something from a different perspective opens up new possibilities.

​

I'm a Clinical Supervisor in Training with over 18 years' experience as a Humanistic Counsellor, alongside my work as a Positive Psychology Coaching Practitioner. My background also includes hypnotherapy (with a focus on mindfulness and somatic work) and the psychology of movement, all of which have shaped how I think about people, their experiences and the work we do.

​

I'm autistic and ADHD, and currently studying for an MA in Autism at Sheffield Hallam University. This builds on my previous small-scale research exploring identity, authenticity, self-compassion and belonging in later-discovered autistic and ADHD women. I love learning, questioning what we think we know and making connections between research and everyday practice.

​

How I approach supervision
My approach is humanistic, strengths-based, narrative-informed and neuro-affirming. I am trained in the seven-eyed model of supervision. 

​

For me, supervision is about much more than discussing client work. Of course, our clinical responsibilities, ethical questions and client welfare matter enormously. But so does the person doing the work!

​

I'm interested in you as a practitioner. Your professional identity, values, strengths, uncertainties and experiences, and how these show up in your work.

​

I particularly enjoy working with therapists who are thoughtful, reflective, creative and open to exploring ideas. Curiosity, openness and a shared love of learning are things I value enormously.

​

We might explore theory, research, Positive Psychology or simply follow an interesting question and see where it takes us. I welcome different perspectives, and I don't believe supervision needs to be terribly formal to be thoughtful and professionally rigorous.

I'm enthusiastic, down to earth and enjoy humour. The odd expletive is likely to be expelled!

​

What neuro-affirming means in my supervision practice
For me, being neuro-affirming begins with curiosity rather than assumptions. It means recognising and respecting different ways of thinking, communicating, processing and experiencing the world, and being open and flexible in how we work together.

It also means being curious about how our own experiences, identities and assumptions shape our work with clients. I value a supervisory relationship where we can question, explore different perspectives and learn from one another, without assuming there's one right way to be a practitioner.

​

Working together
I offer individual online supervision in 60 or 90-minute sessions.

​

As a supervisor in training, my work is supported by regular supervision of my own practice.

 

I'm currently offering an introductory rate of £60 per hour for your first six hours of supervision with me.

 

After that, my standard rates are £75 for 60 minutes or £112.50 for 90 minutes.

 

If you're looking for a collaborative supervisory relationship where you can bring your curiosity, questions and authentic self, I'd love to hear from you.

 

Supervision availability: I currently have a limited number of spaces for new supervisees, with online appointments available on Mondays and Tuesdays, including early morning and late afternoon options. Sessions are 60 or 90 minutes.
