Individual Supervision

In individual supervision, we enter into an alliance, to discuss clinical cases, highlight possible counter- transference, review therapeutic orientations and interventions, and engage in other discussions that will further your professional and clinical development. The aim is to help you build your therapeutic system without experiencing the shame of “not being good enough.”

My supervision style stems from an integrated model, which means I tailor the process based on the stage of the therapist. We will implement elements of several approaches, including trauma-informed therapy, person-centred therapy, and third-wave approaches to our clinical supervision sessions, with a concentration on professional development and ethical conduct.

It is not my intention to delve into any personal issues that may be influencing your professional development. I ask that you let me know immediately if you feel I am crossing any personal boundaries. However, you may wish to consider individual therapy to address any personal issues that are affecting your ability to be objective with your clients.

As your supervisor, I am not your consultant/friend/colleague/therapist; rather, I can sometimes take the role of a mentor/guide. Additionally, I will be transparent in the concerns I hold expertise in vs. those that I do not. During the course of supervision, I may or may not recommend that you work with a client based on how ‘effective’ therapy is.

Key areas for early career practitioners: setting up a private practice, imposter syndrome, boundary work with clients, and finding your niche.

Structure: If you want to discuss a case, please send the details in advance. This saves time on talking about the background and makes more space for discussion. In case you want a specific time slot to be opened, please drop an email at [email protected].
