Supervision for Therapists & Trainees
A collaborative, sturdy space to hold your practice and deepen your work.
As therapists, we are often holding an incredible amount of weight for our clients. To do meaningful, depth-oriented work without burning out, we need a supervision space that is more than just a clinical checklist.
We need a secure, robust container where we can look honestly at what is happening in the room, and within ourselves.
Professional Training
Supervision Training: I am currently working towards my Diploma in Supervision, training with the Centre for Supervision Training and Development (CSTD Bath). I completed a BSc in Humanistic Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy at the Sherwood Psycotherapy Training Institute.
My approach is informed by my role as Head of Adult Services at a local counselling CIC, where I regularly oversee clinical standards and support the growth of both qualified and trainee counsellors.
My Supervision Philosophy
My supervision practice reflects my humanistic-integrative philosophy: it is down-to-earth, deeply collaborative, and entirely non-judgemental.
I view supervision not as a space where I act as the "all-knowing expert," but as a joint inquiry into the relational processes at play in your practice.
We will work together to protect your well-being, widen your clinical perspective, and help you find your own authentic way of being as a practitioner.
The Seven-Eyed Model: Looking at the whole picture
In our sessions, I work using the Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision developed by Peter Hawkins and Robin Shohet.
If we only focus on the client’s symptoms, we miss the richest parts of the therapeutic work. This systemic framework allows us to step back and safely look at the entire ecosystem of your practice:
The Client’s World: What they are bringing into the room, both consciously and unconsciously.
Your Interventions: Exploring the choices you make and alternative therapeutic paths available.
The Relational Space: The subtle parallel processes and dynamics shifting between you and the client.
Your Internal State: How the work is impacting you, your countertransference, and your own internal "blueprints."
The Wider Context: How organizational pressures, professional ethics, and the wider environment impact the work inside the room.
Who I Work With
Whether you are a trainee therapist navigating your first placement or an experienced practitioner working long-term with deep trauma, I offer a steady, maternal warmth combined with a robust clinical background.
I have extensive experience in areas of complex trauma, sexual violence, abuse, and work-related burnout—meaning no presentation is "too heavy" for us to unpack together.

Because I am currently completing my formal practical hours with CSTD Bath, I am able to offer supervision at a reduced rate.
Fee: £45 per 60-minute session.
Location: Available face-to-face at my practice in South Birmingham (The Meridian Centre) or online via video.
