Camilla Ghazala-Saunders

Appointment: Monday & Saturday.

Hours: 8.30am - 5pm

My passion is enabling, encouraging and learning collaboratively as this environment develops personal awareness, emotional regulation and the neurological flexability to navigate life, whilst, most of the time, feeling grounded, energised and present.

I am unable to work with clients who are actively at risk to themselves or others, as these clients require consistent daily support. 

For individuals who require reduced fees, I offer groups (max of four clients). 

The therputic styles I offer are: Integrative Psychotherapy, CBT (wave 2,3 & 4) , CFT,  ACT,  Expanded Thinking, Adlerian Psychology & Polyvagal Informed Therapy. c. 100,000 hours of clinical, supervision and teaching experience. 

I offer face to face, telephone and zoom appointments with individuals, couples, families, and groups, providing compassionate progressive therapy, coaching, supervision and group work.  

From 2002 I have worked as a clincian within the NHS (primary and secondary services).   NHS policy excludes me working with all NHS clients (past and present) in my private practice. 

I have some supervisee appointments coming free from October 2024, one on a Monday and one on a Saturday for a max of four supervisees (60 min appointments).

I have one group appointment coming free on a Friday afternoon for up to two hours. 

Hello, as an experienced and skilful supervisor I can work in a single orientated style (CBT, CFT, ACT, Individual Psychology, Counselling, Adlerian Psychotherapy, Gestalt Psychotherapy, Buddhist Psychology, Systemic Group work & coaching) or an strategically blended style to suite the supervisee, their orientation, personality, learning style and their clients.  

My values are shown through my work,  I am encouraging, transparent, compassionate, grounded and thread appropriate humour and fun through our work.  My experienced is broad based working with mild - severe presentations, multi complex presentations, multiple and single trauma, ND,  LTerm Conditions including LT Covid, individuals, couples, families, groups.

We can use talking, silence, reflection, organic processing, visual diagrams, and range of creative mediums.  

Overall I will enable you to grow your confidence in your work, enjoy aspects of it, avoid burnout, work with the most challenging aspects of it, feel safe that you are practicing within legal and ethical laws and guidelines and continue your learning and development journey. 

Digital supervision offered 1-1 and groups of 4 (60 mins) groups of 6 (90 mins) grops of 8 (120 mins). 

Platform used: Zoom.  I can send you a link for this when we have arranged a meeting so access is a simple as possible.

Face time. 

Regularity and committement to appointemtns and process are required to ensure bacp and babcp guidelines are met.  

In person. 

Trainees are required to attend a minimum of twice a month. 

Our first appointment will focus on what you are looking for in supervision, what your practice involves, what your orientation's are, other supervision, your career progression (ie are you working towards  accreditations), our working agreement. 

Your context: your responsibilities, home life, support networks, health issues that may impede you, your self care.

I would then ask you take a minimum of a week to reflect on our meeting, usually we would arrange a check in call and clarify at that time if you want to arrange a follow up or advise me that you don't require this so I can close your file and delete all data in accordance with gdpr. 

I may advised you I want to discuss our work with my supervisor's before committing to an ongoing agreement.  

Please email or telephone to arrange a day/time to discuss your requirements. 

With an extensive depth and breath of knowledge of training (40 years), coaching and systemic dyamics, I offer highly effective individualised training to meet the requirments of the organisation and realsitic requirements of all individuals.  

Topics include: effective, respectful non-BS communication, soft skills, team collaboration, can do attitudes, courage to maintaine appropriate boundaries,  mature mangement of natural ruptures and many other key topics. 

Individuals are, for the most part, responsible for their wellbeing, and organsiaitions are responsible for developing an encourging, respectful,  enabling culture that is clear and precise on the resonable requirements for all employees.  

Of course the cultrue is also developed through the style and attitudes of each individual. 

All individuals learn through modelling and example. If any member of the team are finding aspects of their role challenging, appropriate training is significantly more benficial (and cost effective) than managing the employee out of the team, company or promoting them up and away. 

All individuals have the capacity to develop,  when provided with the correct elements.
