I set out to create a collaborative, safe space for fellow neurodivergent therapists and coaches, in which you can grow as a practitioner and feel supported in your work. My goal is for my supervisees to trust me with their doubts and concerns, as I believe there is so much to be learned from 'mistakes' and the things that make us uncomfortable. I ask that supervisees bring commitment and openness, which I will return in kind, together with experience, ethical solidity and acceptance.

My approach to Supervision is humanistic with a Person-centred foundation. I am also able to provide purely Person-centred Supervision to practitioners of this model.

My values and approach are holistic and anti oppressive. I am committed to: antiracism; gender, sexuality and relationship diversity (GSRD); and disability rights. I believe in the importance of noticing and addressing difference within therapeutic relationships.

I use a number of Supervision models, and particularly like the 7-Eyed model which I feel provides a good framework for positioning you, your clients, and your relationship, within the wider world in which we live and practice.

I regularly work with Autistic, ADHD, Highly Sensitive (HSP) and other neurodiverse practitioners, as I employ a neuro-affirming approach.

In addition to providing regular monthly or twice monthly supervision, I also offer Top up and consulting supervision. These sessions can be arranged on an ad hoc basis, after an initial foundation session has been undertaken.

I have experience supervising individually and in groups, within organisations and privately.

I am trauma informed in my practice, with experience working with homicide bereavement, complex grief and abuse.

I provide supervision online over zoom for both online and 'in-person' therapists. I bring an awareness of the differences in these ways of working to my supervision with understanding of the specific issues of risk and jurisdiction connected to online therapy.
