COUNSELLING SUPERVISION
Supervison can be fun and insightful, supportive and encouraging, an opportunity to continuously learn and grow to support your clients.
Supervison can help you practice being who you really are, repeatedly at the edge of your own becoming. Keeping up professional development is both the difficulty and the adventure of best practice in counselling, and I have the honour of being able to help you with this rewarding process.
My aim is to offer you supervision that supports your way to be the counsellor you want to be and to assist you to be yourself whilst you counsel your clients, within a range of contexts.
I draw upon my background of counselling individuals, couples and employees, in a range of contexts including, the NHS, Private Practice, Mental Health charities & in business.
I offer counselling supervision to individual counsellors and supervision groups in Kendal. I can also supervise other health professionals in related fields.
Inskipp and Proctor, 2001
"Supervision is a working alliance between two professionals where supervisees offer an account of their work, reflect on it, receive feedback, and receive guidance if appropriate. The object of this alliance is to enable the worker to gain in ethical competency, confidence and creativity so as to give the best possible service to clients."
MY APPROACH TO SUPERVISION
Person Centred Supervison
In line with my own counselling practice, teaching and facilitation work, I am deeply person centred in my approach to working with people in a supervision context (Tudor & Worrall 2004) .
However, also like the other fields I work in, I will draw from other approaches to meet a client's or supervisee's needs. For example I find the 'Seven-eyed model of supervision' very helpful (Hawkins & Shohet 2012) and I really like the meta model of 'helping', the 'Six-category intervention model' (Heron 2002).
Essentially though I prefer to continue to develop my supervision practice out of Roger's theory of therapy, and using it as a template for supervision.
Alongside my preferences I will work with you to be inline with your role, context and theoretical approach as much as possible.
