Clinical Supervision
Hello, my name is Tom, and I am a supervisor, therapist, tutor and writer. For me supervision is all about the relationship and offering you the kind of specific support you are looking for, this would involve tailoring my approach to you and your needs.​ I have qualifications in counselling, psychotherapy, clinical supervision, business administration and media production. All skills I aim to bring into my work as a supervisor.
​
Sessions will be held online via Zoom, the link for Zoom will be emailed to you along with a reminder the day before your supervision session.

The aim of Supervision with me:
I like to offer something different with supervision, something that offers a range of support related to my experience and knowledge.
-
The overall purpose of supervision is firstly to monitor and promote the welfare of your clients. However, I do not forget you in this, meaning we need to consider your needs as a therapist.
-
I recognise that many of my supervisees are running their own business, developing their private practice or looking to create or expand their practice. Therefore supervision with me adds elements of business and marketing support and an acknowledgement of the stress running a business can bring.
-
Personal development is also an important part of practice, so supervision with me holds a space where we can work on your growing edges.
-
I will aim to help you focus on the development of your professional identity and skills, encouraging an authentic you, an authentic practice. This might involve your work as a volunteer, in an organisation or within private practice. ​
-
Finally my work is shame free - I do not want my supervisees to fear what they bring to supervision. As therapists we all have sessions where we don't feel we were "good enough", brining these sessions to me enables us to work on making next time better.
​
What I ask of you:
-
Be open and contribute to the development of an effective working relationship.
-
Be prepared for supervision with a rough idea of what you want from each session.
-
Discuss client caseload, issues arising and prepare for supervision.
-
Be prepared to give and receive feedback.
-
Consult me or other forms of supervision in cases of an emergency.
-
Do not fear sharing your work. Even if you have not been "good enough", I want to hear it so we can work on ways to change and be better.
​​What you can expect working with me:
The supervision I offer is based on a fortnightly basis, sessions last 50 minutes and priced at £70.00.
​
My work as a therapist works closely with the importance of intersectionality with a special focus on working with queer clients and neurodivergent clients. Therefore these are areas that I incorporate into supervision too.
​
Supervision is based on zoom. During supervision I will encourage and facilitate the development of an effective working supervisor / supervisee relationship. We will explore session by session what it is that you would like from supervision.
