Sharne McCarthy

I am an Integrative clinical supervisor. Sometimes you may need a greater support and other times you may need the challenge to move beyond feelings of stuck-ness. I understand as a counsellor myself that this co-created and collaborative relationship requires trust which is established and built over the time we spend together. I do not expect perfection, nor will I be perfect. My hope is that you feel able to bring your client work to our space together to explore in a way that feels safe and free from judgement.

I work with the Seven-Eyed Model to offer a relational, process-oriented space for reflection on your practice.

Whether you are at the beginning of your counselling career or you are an established practitioner, I aim to offer supervision in tune with your level of understanding and experience whilst facilitating your professional development.

I primarily use Humanistic modals with an integration of CBT, Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems and Transactional Analysis. However, as a Counselling lecturer, I have a good knowledge of most counselling theories and can apply them confidently to client work. I enjoy to work creatively across different mediums including sand tray, imagery, therapy cards and art.

I’m an integrative counsellor with a passion for helping you learn, explore, and manage your unwanted behaviours; Understand and cope with feelings of shame, rejection, and fear; And improve self-esteem/care particularly after abuse or trauma so you can feel empowered and inspired to make the changes you want because, I believe you have the ability to heal and change.  

How would we work?

· I would give you the space to be seen and heard so you can focus on the parts of your life that matter to you.

· Use creative tools such as cards, sand trays, dreams, and imagery.

· Psychoeducation- sharing with you research and evidenced based processes that can help you understand behaviours and feelings.

I offer a free introductory session. This is usually 20 minutes.  This session gives you the opportunity to ask any questions and allows you to get a feeling for how we can work together.
