I offer monthly supervision sessions in-person and by telephone or on-line at mutually convenient times.

I currently have availability for one extra supervisee either in-person or on-line.

I am a Solution-Focused therapist by training and have completed the Solution Focused Supervisor course.

 In addition to this I use other techniques and approaches when they are useful in supervision. I also have a private practice working with clients which gives me an awareness of the issues my supervisees bring. I attend training regularly-most recently in the field of creative therapy- which informs my work both as a therapist and supervisor.

I hope that my supervisees find me a good listener and someone that they feel comfortable to talk to about any issues they bring.

 I also encourage an open conversation about anything the supervisee is unhappy with during supervision and welcome their comments about how I could improve their experience of supervision.

In a first session we will explore what the supervisee wants from supervision- their 'best hopes'- and how we will work together.

I enjoy the process of supervision and I try to ensure my supervisees do as well. Supervisees do not need to be trained in the same approach as me- in fact it is good to get a fresh perspective on client work.

Please contact me for a chat if you would like to discuss further what I can offer as a supervisor.

I have flexible hours but prefer daytime/early evening appts.

My charges are £50 for a telephone/on-line session.

£60 face to face

I am a Solution Focused therapist by training and tend to work on a short term basis- typically under 20 sessions. The number of sessions is very much directed by client need.  

The Solution Focused approach helps clients to set goals for therapy and we work together to identify strategies to help manage difficult situations and work towards a preferred future.

I  offer face to face therapy in my consulting room subject to Covid 19 safety procedures.

 I also offer telephone and  on-line sessions for those who prefer this way of working. Telephone sessions are at a lower cost than in-person sessions.

Sessions last for 50 minutes in person and 45 minutes on the telephone.

I feel it is important to have a brief telephone conversation with all clients prior to the first session to introduce myself and my way of working and the client's hopes for therapy.

 We can also then discuss the format for therapy that the client would prefer- telephone, on-line or face to face.
