“The person you are working with should make you feel safe, comfortable and able to talk about the things you need to talk about — including possible mistakes or things you might have missed. This is what supervision is about.”
Karin Brauner
What supervision actually does for you and your clients
Supervision should do more than keep you compliant. It should help you grow.
I work from an integrated framework built across years of practice, teaching, and reflection — drawing on five established supervision models to hold what a single model can’t: the clinical complexity of the case, the relational dynamics in the room, the ethical weight of the work, and the very human experience of you doing it.
I help practitioners integrate reflective practice and supervision theory into ethical clinical work and real professional development. Not as theory. As something you actually feel the difference of — in sessions, in your contracting, in how you carry the work home.
Over time, supervisees typically find they:
– Develop a felt sense of what’s happening in the room – including the dynamics that are hardest to name, like projective identification
– Tighten their contracting and boundaries – not as a rule, but as a genuine clinical skill
– Grow in confidence with clients, with difficult conversations, and with the practical realities of running a sustainable private practice
– Research and reflect together on what the work is asking of them – because good supervision is also continuing professional development
Some of my supervisees have been working with me since 2018 and more have kept coming to me for regular sessions since then. That kind of continuity isn’t habit — it’s because the work keeps being useful.
If you’re a counsellor at any career stage, this style of supervision is for you.
Whether you’re newly qualified and finding your feet, or experienced and wanting a space that goes deeper than case management, this is built for practitioners who care about doing the work well.
I also offer supervision to neurodivergent supervisors, and to counsellors working with neurodivergent clients. I’ve been exploring my own neurodivergence for some time, and it shapes how I hold this work. (More on my journey here.)
Not for: practitioners who need a supervisor mainly to sign off hours and move on. There are faster options for that.
My background in supervision
My first experiences of clinical supervision have marked how I see this important aspect of our Private Practice. I’ve had excellent supervisors in my B.A. in Guatemala – contemporary psychoanalytic for my work with adults, and cognitive-behavioural, behavioural, play therapy and psychometric approaches for my work with young people and children.
My experiences of supervision in the UK have been varied, though mostly positive, and always instructive. In all my years practising, I’ve learned to be assertive — and honestly, quite picky — when it comes to choosing my own supervisors. I encourage you to be the same. That experience of different supervisors across different contexts is part of what set the standard for what I now offer.
My Theoretical Framework developed from my supervision studies, and through practising in a way that covers all the bases regarding containment, reflection, ethics, and more. The way I work is informed by five of the main supervision theories out there, and abide by the idea that supervision is so much more than only talking about client work – although that’s the more obvious aspect in the sessions. (see my blog series for more.)

Ad Hoc / One-off Sessions
As I practice, I’ve found that more and more counsellors are needing one-off specialist supervision sessions, or a “holding” supervisor whilst their regular one is off sick or for other reasons.
I have offered this for the last few years, and it works really well.
If you’d like a one-off or a few ad-hoc supervision sessions, contact me via this form for my week-to-week availability OR book a 15min free call to see if I’m the right fit for you.
Group Supervision
Frequency of Meetings: Once a month for 2hrs and 15min.
Cost for each session – £50 per group member
*** If you are interested in group supervision with me, please let me know and I’ll add you to the waiting list***
The right supervisor is worth being picky about. I hope that supervisor is me.
How to start: Reach out directly or book a free 15-minute call.
We’ll have an initial conversation — no obligation — to see whether it’s a good fit. If it is, we agree a format and begin.
MEDIA RESOURCES: Blogs and Short Videos
I’ve made it as easy as possible for you to decide whether you’d like to have me support your counselling, supervision and coaching work, with a full series of blog posts, short videos, workshops on demand, and a free initial chat where I can answer all your questions so you can make an informed decision and work out what works best for you and your growing practice.

Online Counselling and Supervision
The past 11 years have been a journey into learning how supervision works, learning the theory, opening up my supervision service, later on running workshops and culminating in the book that I’m writing now.
It will be a great source of knowledge from the theorists that started developing – and continue to do so – the supervision frameworks we have now. What I’m adding to the mix is practical applications to every day practice in a way that’s approachable, real-world, but still in-depth.
I hope you’ll join me in this journey as you look through the resources I’ve accumulated through the years, whilst the book is in the process of being written, with more in-depth research on my part and lots of fun, informative and reflective posts on LinkedIn and on this website.
Feel free to browse the media resources below and do get in touch if you’d like to enquire about supervision or just to check how the book is coming along!
