Counselling Supervision
Counselling Case Management
I’m here to help you with case management including progress, clients you may feel stuck with, and those that may suddenly stop therapy as well as ethical dilemmas – embracing the uniqueness of all your clients and the profound events that have shaped them.
We will work with but also build on your knowledge, in order, to widen the areas of work that you feel confident in. Although I am person-centered, I may draw on various theories and approaches (Attachment theory, IFS, NLP, Neuro Science, Poly Vagal theory, HSP …) to support and help develop your work with clients. I may also draw on some psycho-education when appropriate. But, I, also, invite you to bring your creativity to sessions to understand yourself better, and your clients. I may use my creative style (metaphors, visualisations, characters, or scenes from books and films …) to help explain theories and my experience in sessions, but also to identify possible areas to explore with your clients safely.
Supervisory Relationship
Fostering a safe working alliance is an integral part of our work together. Our working relationship sits at the heart of supervision so I want to make sure you feel safe to talk about any aspect of your work that is playing on your mind. Creating a warm, trusting relationship where we can look at what works, just as much as what you may be struggling with or what to understand more about so that you feel safe and supported no matter what you want to talk to me about.
Safe Care
Supervision is also your space to tap into your experience when working with specific clients and how that may affect you and shape the therapeutic relationship. Looking at what is going on for you within your working environment, in general, within the therapeutic relationship, and our supervisory relationship so that you remain safe and confident in yourself.
I can’t express enough the importance of self-care and self-compassion so will encourage you to take time to nuture your own curiosty and compassion in all that you do and make sure you priortise your own well-being.
Therapeutic Relationship
We may also take a fly-on-the-wall approach and observe what is happening between you and your clients. Taking a non-judgemental look can be very insightful process which can reveal attachment tendencies, boundaries, transference, and countertransference… we can then explore ways to address them and deepen the therapeutic relationship.
