Supervision
Clinical Supervision
I am an experienced and qualified supervisor. I completed my Certificate in Supervision in 2010 with the Centre for Supervision & Team Development (now CSTD London and CSTD Bath).
I provide individual and group (maximum 4 people) clinical supervision to qualified and trainee counsellors and psychotherapists. I also provide reflective supervision to a wide range of other professionals. Past supervisees have included social workers, psychologists, mental health nurses, managers of small/ medium size organisations.
I keep brief notes of supervision sessions. GDPR requirements apply and are adhered to.
I think the aim of supervision is to provide supervisees with a supportive space within which to explore their practice. Supervisees may need to meet professional body requirements (e.g. UKCP, BACP, NCPS) whilst the focus of supervision reflects the role of the supervisee. For example, a counsellor or psychotherapist might want to discuss work with clients, the impact of their work for them, their self-care and/or continuing professional development. Whilst a manager in a small to medium sized charity might want to explore their work with colleagues to support the delivery of high-quality services. Or where a service is regulated by an external body (e.g. OFSTED or CQC) staff should have regular supervision to support them in their role.
At the heart of supervision is the relationship between supervisee and supervison. Effective supervision supports professional and personal development. As an independent supervisor, I am not responsible for the supervisee’s job performance, the number or types of cases accepted and/or assigned to the supervisee or any other aspects of their practice or (where applicable) training requirements. I hope that I can provide a supportive and challenging relationship which offers opportunities for learning, growth and, where appropriate, problem solving.
