Finding a supportive supervisor is vital if you want to grow your practice, gain confidence and spread your wings in this wonderful profession. Ideally you want to feel safe to bring absolutely anything to your supervisor, not just the successes, but the ethical dilemmas, the parts that trouble you and the perceived ‘mistakes’.  

​

The hope is that we can develop a safe space together where we can collaboratively explore the rationales for decisions made in the counselling process with your clients keeping at all times in mind their safety and wellbeing. I come without judgement, but with curiosity and an open mind to explore what is transpiring in the therapeutic relationship.

​

I have been in practice for over 15 years, and I also run a business that offers CPD to counsellors (www.greenwoodevents.co.uk).  So, as well as my training in person-centred, psychodynamic and CBT approaches, I have thousands of hours of CPD under my belt that I can draw on, including specialist training on working with people who have been to boarding school. I offer understanding, sharing of experience, reassurance, gentle challenge and support.  

​

In addition, I am happy to offer any information I deem appropriate for psychoeducation.  I have a vast library of psychoeducational tools gathered over the years which I am more than happy to share.

​

Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to see you grow and expand as a therapist in this increasingly competitive space.

​

If you are setting out in private practice, I can offer you practical help in this area that can help you gain confidence in developing as a business person, as well as a therapist.

​

Feel free to get in touch for a chat to see if we are a good fit.

My fee is £60 per hour, payable in advance of each session.
