Clinical Supervision

Supervision for Counsellors

Are you looking for a new supervisor, or are you a trainee counsellor seeking your first supportive supervisory relationship?

I offer supervision to qualified counsellors, therapists-in-training, and professionals working with adults and children. I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Supervision and use the 7-Eyed Model (Hawkins & Shohet) as a foundation, alongside creative and integrative approaches.

My style is relational, reflective, and growth-focused—offering a collaborative space to deepen your practice and self-awareness.

Further infomation

I am a qualified and experienced counselling psychotherapist and mindfulness practitioner with over 20 years of experience working with both children and adults. I currently lead the Children and Young People’s Counselling Service at a local hospice, where I also hold the role of Safeguarding Officer for Children. Alongside this, I run a thriving private practice from a peaceful therapy centre in Buxton, offering both supervision and counselling on Mondays and Thursdays.

My background includes extensive work with domestic abuse, pre- and post-bereavement grief, anxiety, and trauma. I have a particular interest in using creative techniques to support deeper therapeutic work — helping clients to move beyond cognitive defences and connect with inner experiences through imagination, symbolism, and embodied awareness. These creative methods are often valuable in accessing the deeper parts of the self, offering new ways of understanding and healing.

As a supervisor, I offer a collaborative, reflective, and supportive space where you can feel safe to explore your work, deepen your skills, and grow both personally and professionally. I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Clinical Supervision, grounded in the Seven-Eyed Model developed by Hawkins and Shohet — a flexible, integrative framework suitable for working across all modalities.

My approach to supervision is integrative and tailored to each supervisee, drawing on humanistic, creative, and transpersonal perspectives. My initial psychodynamic training adds depth to my understanding of how past experiences can inform present patterns in both therapeutic and supervisory relationships.

I believe supervision should be a nourishing and evolving relationship — one that offers support, challenge, education, and insight. Whether you’re newly qualified or an experienced practitioner, I’d be happy to talk through your needs and see whether we might be a good fit.
