she / her

“I became a supervisor because I care deeply about ethics and best practice in our work as professional health care practitioners. I always endeavour to offer thoughtful, grounded and practical supervision, because I truly understand the importance of supervision needing to be a safe, supportive space. I love supporting practitioners at every stage of their career to work with integrity and to find their way forward positively when things feel difficult.”

I bring eleven years of clinical experience to supervision, working with people across health, community, and justice settings. I combine trauma-informed practice with somatic and body-based modalities, meeting supervisees with genuine encouragement and practical support. I work with counsellors at all stages of practice, and with professionals across many disciplines navigating complex cases, leadership challenges, and their own professional growth. I look forward to supporting you on your next supervision journey should you choose me as your next supervisor!

Social workersCounsellorsPsychotherapistsIndigenous healing practitioners

I offer mentoring, coaching and consultation, cultural supervision, and management and leadership supervision, meeting you where you are at in your practice. Whether you are brand new to counselling, a student on placement, early-career, or returning after a break, I work with you, as well as with experienced practitioners building a specialisation, those in senior or advanced roles, private practitioners, internationally qualified social workers, and those moving into a new field of practice.

I work from an integrative and eclectic base, drawing on the Seven-Eyed Model, Reflective Practice, Solution-Focused, Narrative, Person-Centred, and Somatic approaches. The Seven-Eyed Model brings a wide lens to the supervisory relationship, attending to what is happening at each level of the work. Reflective Practice creates space to pause and think, Solution-Focused and Narrative approaches attend to strengths and meaning, and somatic awareness keeps the body in the room alongside everything else.
