Collaborative Clinical Supervision for Psychotherapists
I offer clinical supervision for psychotherapists through a collaborative approach grounded in relational, trauma-informed, queer-feminist, and person-centred practice. Supervision gives you space to develop your clinical thinking, strengthen your capacity, and become more grounded in your own way of practising.
My approach starts with the belief that you already bring significant knowledge, skill, and wisdom to your work. I am not here to tell you how to be a therapist. Instead, I help you develop the tools, awareness, and confidence to access your clinical capacities more consistently.
My Approach to Supervision
Our work brings together case consultation, use-of-self, embodied and nervous-system awareness, ethics, and ongoing professional development. We look at what is happening for your client, within you, and between you.
Clinical work becomes especially interesting when something feels complicated. I pay particular attention to power and authority, transference and countertransference, therapist capacity, uncertainty, and ethical tensions. We also explore the ways our histories and bodies enter the therapeutic relationship.
I don’t separate clinical skill from the person providing the therapy. Your body, values, relationships, and lived experience can all offer important clinical information. Supervision gives us a place to notice those experiences and explore what they might be communicating.
Who I Work With
I offer individual, dyadic, and group clinical supervision for psychotherapists at different stages of professional development. This includes Registered Psychotherapists working toward or maintaining CRPO registration requirements.
Clinicians may come to supervision wanting to deepen their work with trauma, religious and spiritual trauma, queer and trans clients, gender exploration, sexuality, alternative relationships and family structures, or embodied approaches to psychotherapy.
For therapists shaped by religious or spiritual environments, supervision can also provide space to explore how authority, certainty, obedience, autonomy, and belief enter clinical work.
Supervision as Collaborative Troubleshooting
I think of supervision as a place to slow things down and get curious together.
What isn’t making sense? Where are you getting stuck? What are you noticing in your body? What might your client be communicating without words? Which assumptions are shaping your formulation?
We can also explore where power, identity, or your own history may be influencing what happens in the room. Sometimes a new clinical skill helps. Sometimes you need a different formulation.
At other times, the work involves recognizing an ethical issue or boundary. And sometimes, the most important step is learning to trust what you already know.
My goal is for you to leave supervision with greater clarity, clinical choice, and capacity—not simply another list of things you should do differently.
Individual, Dyadic & Group Supervision
Individual supervision creates dedicated space for your clinical development, case consultation, use-of-self exploration, and professional questions.
Dyadic supervision gives two clinicians a shared learning environment. You receive individual attention while also learning from another therapist’s clinical thinking and experience.
Group supervision creates a collaborative learning community where clinicians can bring cases, explore clinical process, and learn from multiple perspectives. I keep groups intentionally small so everyone has meaningful opportunities to participate and connect.
Clinical Supervision and Consultation
Supervision and consultation can overlap, but they serve different purposes. Supervision is an ongoing professional relationship that includes clinical development, ethical practice, use-of-self, and accountability.
Consultation offers a more focused opportunity to think through a particular case or clinical question. You don’t need an ongoing supervisory relationship to seek another perspective.
If you’re unsure which option fits, we can talk about what you’re looking for. Together, we can identify the kind of support that would be most useful.
A Place to Develop Your Own Practice
Good supervision doesn’t make every therapist practise the same way. Instead, it helps you become more intentional about how you want to practise, what you bring to the therapeutic relationship, and what conditions help you do your best work.
I want supervision to be a place where you can think carefully about your clinical work and be honest about uncertainty. Most importantly, I want to support you in developing a practice that is ethically grounded, responsive, and genuinely your own.
