As a clinical supervisor, I am passionate about supporting counsellors and helping professionals to reflect, grow, and build sustainable, purpose-driven careers. My supervision style is collaborative, supportive, and practical — offering a space where you can bring both your clinical work and your business goals. I believe supervision should be more than just reflective practice; it should also provide guidance, encouragement, and real-world strategies to help you thrive personally and professionally.
With a background in counselling, leadership, marketing, and business development, I understand the many roles practitioners often juggle — particularly those in private practice or working in rural and regional settings. I am deeply committed to helping people navigate the challenges of client work, while also growing practices that align with their values, lifestyle, and long-term goals. My approach is down-to-earth, relational, and tailored to meet you where you are at.
Supervision with me can support you in private practice start-up and growth, marketing and social media strategy, ethical decision-making, navigating boundaries, and managing self-care to prevent burnout. I love working with practitioners who want to develop programs, workshops, or online courses, and I’m passionate about helping people build businesses that are both financially sustainable and deeply rewarding.
My experience leading teams of counsellors, facilitating workshops, developing partnerships with organisations, and improving workplace culture gives me a broad perspective on the challenges practitioners face. I understand the realities of working in community settings, supporting complex client presentations, managing isolation in private practice, and responding to critical incidents.
Supervisees often describe me as warm, approachable, and empowering. I aim to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, supported, and encouraged to grow — both as a practitioner and as a person. I’m not here to give you a cookie-cutter approach; I’m here to help you explore what works for you and to support you in building a practice that feels authentic and aligned.
Whether you’re in private practice, working within an organisation, or just beginning your professional journey, I would love to walk alongside you. Supervision with me is a space for reflection, planning, creativity, and growth — all held with professionalism, integrity, and care.
If you are looking for a supervisor who can support you in both your client work and your business development — someone who understands the heart of counselling but also the realities of building a practice — I would love to connect with you.
