For counsellors who want a reflective, grounded space to develop their practice with honesty and depth
I provide counselling supervision for trainee and qualified counsellors in Warwickshire, including Snitterfield near Stratford-upon-Avon and online.
Supervision is more than a requirement – it’s one of the most important spaces you have as a therapist.
But not all supervision feels useful. You may have experienced supervision that feels:
- overly formal or evaluative
- unclear in its focus
- or difficult to be fully open within
I offer a supervisory space that is collaborative, reflective, and gently challenging – where you can think clearly about your work and develop real confidence in your practice.

Supervision Approach
My approach to supervision is grounded in humanistic principles.
This means we work together to:
- explore your client work openly and honestly
- develop your own understanding and way of practising
- support both your professional and personal growth
I aim to create a space where the process feels de-shaming, equal, and safe enough for real reflection – while still offering the challenge needed for development.
Supervision with me may feel:
thoughtful, honest, reflective, and at times gently challenging

Who I work with
I work with:
- Counselling trainees
- Newly qualified therapists
- Experienced practitioners
- Therapists working with long-term or complex client work
You don’t need to have everything figured out – but a willingness to reflect openly and engage with the process is important.
My experience
I am a qualified and accredited Counselling Supervisor based in Warwickshire.
I completed my Diploma in Clinical Supervision with Northside Training – a comprehensive and in-depth training which developed both my confidence and depth as a supervisor.
Alongside supervision, I run a full private practice and have been fully booked for many years. This means my supervision is grounded in the realities of ongoing client work, not just theory.
My background includes work in:
- Addiction rehabilitation (group psychotherapy)
- Bereavement counselling within a hospice
- Supporting survivors of sexual abuse via helpline work
- Teaching counselling at a local college
I am an Accredited Professional Registrant (PNCPS Acc.) with the NCPS.
I have experience both as a supervisee and now as a supervisor, which informs how I hold the supervisory relationship.
How Supervision Works with Me
In our supervision sessions, you can expect to:
- Reflect openly on your client work
- Explore uncertainty, stuckness, and ethical dilemmas
- Deepen your understanding of your practice
- Develop confidence in your clinical decision-making
At times, I may:
- reflect alongside you
- offer gentle challenge
- introduce theory where helpful
- help you think more clearly about what’s happening in the work
We will work at a pace that supports both your learning and your confidence.
The focus is always:
supporting you to become a more grounded and confident practitioner
Supervision formats available
I offer supervision in a range of formats:
- Face-to-face (garden summerhouse setting)
- Online video sessions
- Telephone supervision
- Outdoor walk-and-talk supervision
We can agree a format – or a flexible mix – depending on what works best for you.
Cultural and Personal Awareness
I am attentive to the cultural and personal contexts you and your clients bring.
This includes:
- your background, identity, and training
- your therapeutic approach
- the wider context your clients are living within
This awareness supports a more thoughtful and inclusive approach to both therapy and supervision.
Unique Experience
Before training as a therapist, I spent a decade working in website design.
If useful, I can also support you with:
- understanding websites
- basic SEO
- online presence as a therapist
This is always secondary to client work, but available as an additional resource.
Many therapists find this particularly helpful when building or refining their private practice.

Fees: £60 per hour

Contact Me About Counselling Supervision
Supervision, to me, is a process of gradual development and unfolding.
I sometimes think of the ‘Koru’ — a spiral shape in Māori culture symbolising growth, renewal, and new beginnings.
While I hold deep respect for its cultural origins, the idea of steady growth over time resonates strongly with how I understand supervision.
You’re welcome to contact me for a chat. I would really like to hear from you.
