What is supervision?
“A process of experiential learning wherein a regular and safe place is created for practitioners to undertake facilitated reflection on the experiences that arise from their work” (G. Murray, 1999)
What does a supervisee do?
Supervisees are expected to actively prepare and participate in the supervision process and this will include a willingness to take responsibility for presenting case work, engage in problem solving, and may include homework and/or reading.
What does a supervisor do?
My approach is non-judgemental. As a counsellor and psychotherapist I am a respectful, open and genuine person with an integrative approach and a strong bias towards cognitive behaviour therapy. I also take an integrative approach to supervision using, among others, the Cyclical Model of Page & Wosket (2001) and the Process Model of Hawkins & Shohet (2006). I provide a safe place for supervisees to reflect on case work in a supportive and collaborative environment.
I can also provide evaluation and reporting required for accreditation, re-accreditation or for a trainee’s course provider.
I facilitate individual sessions or lead small groups of experienced health professionals or less experienced practitioners or trainees. I facilitate external supervision for small groups of health care professionals.
Please phone me for directions. Sessions are 50-60mins and cost €80. Payment by Cash or Revolut.
