Clinical Supervision for EMDR and Systemic Psychotherapy.

I provide supervision to mental health professionals who have attended at least Part 1 of their basic training in EMDR and wish to develop their skills in using this approach with children, adolescents and adults. This could ultimately involve supporting EMDR therapists to apply for accreditation as an EMDR Practitioner or as an EMDR Consultant for children, adolescents and adults.

Having worked in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services for over 20 years as a Systemic Family Psychotherapist, I have had lots of opportunity to work with children and adolescents, aged 4 yrs to 18 yrs, ensuring that the use of EMDR is age and developmental stage appropriate. Creative, playful, narrative techniques would be explored in the supervisory experience.

I offer individual or group supervision to a range of Mental Health professionals from a number of disciplines, who may be employed by NHS Trusts or Local Authorities, work for charities such as Freedom From Torture or Rape Crisis, or are in Independent Practice. This supervision is provided ON-LINE ONLY and is usually on a monthly basis. Some supervisees are seen individually, others choose to be seen in a small group and benefit from hearing other therapists sharing their dilemmas and expertise.

As a Systemic Psychotherapist, I am happy to offer systemic supervision to Mental Health professionals who are trained systemically themselves, or who are from a different discipline but are interested in learning more about this approach. I completed an advanced 2 year training in the supervision of systemic psychotherapists and have over 20 years of experience as a systemic supervisor. I am a Registered Systemic Supervisor with the Association for Family Therapy and Systemic Practice (AFT).

Fees for clinical supervision are available on request.
