Clinical Supervision

I am an highly experienced clinical supervisor for HCPC-registered Music Therapy colleagues and an approved Clinical Supervisor for the UK training in Music Imagery Psychotherapy (https://musicimagerhub.org/)  If you are an HCPC-registered Music Psychotherapist or arts practitioner and would like to book an initial session, please get in touch.

In supervision, I offer the benefit of 25 years' clinical experience, both as an independent practitioner and via work for various organisations.   During this time I worked with both children and adults with learning disabilities, neurological conditions, brain injury, in palliative care and in mental health (acute, rehabilitation and medium secure).  I worked in special schools, day centres, residential homes, hospitals and in private practice.   

While I have had a supervision practice for many years, a primary role was with the charity Music as Therapy International, where as Clinical Advisor to Local Partners I offered training, advice and supervision to recipients the Charity's training programs.   

As a Clinical Supervisor, I offer a warm, non-judgemental, collaborative professional space for you to bring whatever issue you need to explore.  In supporting you, I am generally guided by Hawkins’ and Shohet’s Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision (2012), which encompasses broad and specific frameworks - for example from techniques/interventions, to workplace dynamcis and issues around professional identity.  I keep clear boundaries between personal issues evoked by work and personal therapy.  I also ask you to agree to a standard short contract and all of this is discussed in our first session.  

I offer both face to face supervision from my home in Steyning and online via zoom.   Sessions last an hour and cost £60 for individuals and £70 for organisations.
