Background

For most of my professional life I have been supported by a supervisory relationship. This has given me the space and opportunity to reflect on my professional practice and to observe how I am responding to situations, events and my life as I am living it.

Over the last 20 years I have undertaken numerous courses in supervision and have been a participant in a pilot supervision training course.

I was a supervisor of social work, teaching and health care professionals for a number of years and now supervise complementary health practitioners and people working within the social care sector.

Approach

My approach to the supervision process follows Homeopathic principles - a minimum dose of intervention to facilitate movement or change. Homeopathy is more than a medicine - it is a way of being: with observation, presence and reflection at the heart of it. The supervisory relationship offers this possibility with a safe, creative space to observe and explore your “obstacles to balance” whether they are at home, at work or in your relationships. My role is to be your unprejudiced observer, not the expert: to be ready to meet whatever is present for you and to offer the opportunity to help this unfold - in a similar way to a person-centred approach.

Sessions

Your session will focus on whatever you bring - an event, a feeling, difficulties with a relationship, a need to be “heard”. How we do this will vary but may include talking, writing, drawing - whatever feels right at the time. This is your space.

Frequency, duration and cost of sessions will be contracted prior to the initial session. I have two venues available to me or may be able to travel to a venue of your choice, depending on location. Materials for any creative work will be provided.
