How Supervision Might Help:
The purpose of supervision is to help develop the work of psychotherapists and counsellors. Inevitably, therapists will feel a stuckness in their work with others, or they will find themselves drawn into enactments they need help in understanding.
Finding good supervision means there is support for your practice, both for you and your clients, that comes from being able to reflect on it. The sense of containment this brings is a crucial requirement for the development of therapists.
I’ll find a way of working that builds on your existing training and your therapeutic style and provide additional reflections, perspectives and dimensions that can be taken back into your practiceintegrated into your thinkimg and taken back into your practice.
Supervision is usually established as a regular, ongoing arrangement, but I also provide clinical consultations on a less frequent or short-term basis. I also work with small supervision groups as well as one-to-one. If you are interested, get in touch with me so we can have a discussion.
How I Work:
My supervisory framework is an integration of my training and practice as a psychodynamic psychotherapist alongside the relational psychoanalytic, body psychotherapy and Gestalt therapy approaches that have influenced my theoretical development since.
In practice, what this means is that I would first of all get a sense of your practice as a whole and something of your life circumstances around your practice so that a sense of containment could be felt towards your work with your clients
My style as a supervisor includes working with both the concious, verbal content in the sessions but also the unconscious, non-verbal content. This is from both the therapy relationship but also comes up in valuable ways in the supervisory relationship.
Supervision is usually established as a regular and ongoing arrangement, but there is also scope for clinical consultations on a less frequent or short-term basis. If you are interested in having a conversation to explore whether we could work together then please contact me here.
