About me and my therapy practice

I trained as a supervisor for both groups and Individuals in 2007. I work with psychotherapists, counsellors, health care professionals, social workers or indeed anyone wanting space to reflect on their life goals within the context of a supportive, ethical and developmental framework. I offer the appropriate balance of challenge, support and ethical accountability whether you are a trainee, newly qualified, working towards accreditation or an experienced practitioner. I also aim to provide a creative play space where it is safe to explore ideas, theories and ways of working. An opportunity to celebrate what has gone well as well as somewhere you can share what has been difficult and be supported to find a way forward. I see supervision as collaborative not directive and as in counselling it is the relationship between supervisor and supervisee that determines the quality of development that takes place. I maintain close contact with training organisations as a placement provider and am familiar with what is required in order to support trainees on their journey to qualification. I also work with counsellors seeking accreditation to enable them to prepare their application.

Practice description

I am a BACP Senior Accredited and UKRC registered therapist and supervisor. I qualified as a psychotherapist 25 years ago and am the Director of Crossways Counselling Service – a registered charity in Haslemere- as well as working in private practice as a counsellor and clinical supervisor. I worked for the NHS for 12 years until recently as the Counselling and Bereavement Manager for Macmillan Midhurst as part of a multi-disciplinary medical team for patients living with a life limiting illness and their families and loved ones- supporting them from diagnosis onwards.

I work both face to face or online and am a certified counsellor with the Association for counselling and therapy online (ACTO) having completed an accredited training with that organisation. I have my own therapy room in Haslemere with Private parking.

I trained as a clinical supervisor for groups and individuals in 2007 and have supported both trainees and qualified counsellors working towards accreditation as well as supervising experienced practitioners with their own supervision practice. As a placement provider I maintain close contact with training organisations and have had the pleasure of working with many trainees and newly qualified counsellors over the years.

My first session

As in counselling, the purpose of  our first session together is to explore if I am the right person for you to work with.  As in therapy, it is important that we both feel we can build a good relationship to underpin the work we do.  Together we will look at what your hopes and expectations are, where you are in your journey as a counsellor or professional and what support you need.    If you are happy to go ahead, and I think I can offer the supervision you require, we will discuss a working agreement.  Usually this will be at a regular time each month but I appreciate that sometimes training or work commitments mean there is a need for flexibility.
