My approachI believe that a working partnership is key to effective and quality supervision. I really enjoy this aspect of my work and my aim is to assist you in your professional development and support you as you attend to the therapeutic needs of your clients.
At our initial meeting, I take time to find what's important to you in supervision, how we might work together, what would be helpful to you, and what approaches we might use together. Throughout our working relationship, I will continue to review what is helpful to you and what we could do differently, to ensure you are still getting what you need from supervision. I use recognised supervision models as a framework for our work such as The Seven Eyed Supervisor's Model- Hawkins & Shohet, The Cyclical Model -Page & Wosket and Carroll's Task Model of Supervision. However, I am always keen to see what works best for you and happy to try new ways of working together. My experience is varied and I have worked in a number of settings including the NHS, Youth Service, Schools Counsellor, Voluntary Sector and Private Practice. I supervise qualified and trainee counsellors, both one to one and in groups. Much of my supervisory experience has been within the voluntary sector, students, and for therapists who work with children and young people. |
