invitation to reflective space
I am a qualified and experienced therapist and supervisor practising in East Kent and on Skype.
I qualified with an MSc in Therapeutic Counselling at the University of Greenwich in 2001.
I trained as a Supervisor with CSTD (Centre for Supervision and Team Development). My EMDR training was with Michael Patterson and John Spector (EMDRA).
I am an Accredited member of the BACP, working to their ethical framework, and a member of the EMDR Association.
About me
"Often it is only as we develop our clinical experience beyond our basic training that we extend our competencies to meet cases and situations that challenge our deeply held assumptions and values."
(David Owen & Robin Shohet
Clinical Supervision in the Medical Profession)
For many years I have worked as an integrative therapist using Counselling, Mindfulness, CBT and EMDR to assist both private and NHS clients. I have always valued and appreciated the creative, supportive space that supervision can provide. It continues to be a place to explore and extend my experience of meeting myself and my clients.
​
In my role as Supervisor, I am interested in encouraging those who work with patients and clients, in medical and other therapeutic environments, to use reflective practice in the pursuit of professional and personal development. I offer the space to recharge and regain perspective; to slow down and build resilience. To feel held, heard and attended to.
