Clinical Supervision

Who I work with:

I supervise:

• Therapists-in-training who need a secondary supervisor

• Newly qualified therapists establishing their practice

• Experienced practitioners integrating IFS into their existing work

• Therapists curious about IFS who want a supervisor who understands the model

My particular interest is in supporting therapists who use or are drawn to IFS, and I bring my own extensive IFS training and practice into the supervisory relationship. I offer IFS-informed supervision: a space where the language of parts, Self energy, and the IFS frame is understood and can be woven naturally into our work together. (Please note: I am not an IFS Approved Clinical Consultant, so if you need ACC-eligible consultation hours for IFS certification purposes, you will need to arrange those separately.)

How I supervise:

My approach to supervision is warm, active, and grounded in curiosity. I draw on my integrative training (Psychodynamic, Person-Centred, Gestalt, Existential) and my own experience as an IFS therapist to create a space that feels both safe and genuinely exploratory.

Sessions are led by what you bring. You might arrive with a client who is stuck, a moment in session that you cannot quite make sense of, a pattern you keep noticing, or a question about how to proceed. We follow the thread wherever it leads.

I pay attention to what gets activated in you through your clinical work. Using an IFS-informed lens, we can notice and work with the parts of you that show up as a therapist, whether that is the part that wants to fix, the part that worries about getting it wrong, or the part that is moved by a client's pain. This is not therapy, but supervision that takes your inner world seriously.

As well as the relational and clinical dimensions of practice, I am happy to think with you about the practical and business side of being a therapist: building a caseload, managing fees, setting limits, navigating endings, and finding your way as an independent practitioner.
