Supervision for the
Qualified Therapist

The Importance of Supervision Beyond Qualification
Supervision does not end once you are qualified, it deepens. For experienced therapists, supervision becomes less about oversight and more about ongoing support, nourishment, and professional evolution. It is the space where you bring your stuck points, your subtle insights, your doubts, and your creative sparks and where all parts of your professional identity are welcome.
Our clinic offers supervision that acknowledges the depth, complexity, and emotional labour of therapeutic work. Whether you are in private practice, working within services, or holding multiple roles, supervision with us provides a reliable, grounded space for reflection and professional renewal.
What You Can Expect from Supervision
-
Relational Depth
Supervision is a co-created relationship. We work in a way that is non-hierarchical, authentic and attuned, offering supervision that respects your experience while supporting your growth. -
Creative Reflection
Qualified therapists often long for a more imaginative space in supervision. We integrate methods like sandspace, metaphor, movement, creative journaling and visual reflection to unlock deeper understanding and renewed connection with your work. -
Ethical Clarity
With ever-evolving challenges in the therapy world, supervision provides a vital space for ethical reflection. We supports you in navigating boundaries, risk, safeguarding, and dilemmas ensuring your work remains safe, accountable and aligned with your values. -
Support with Complex Presentations
Gina and Maura have particular expertise in adolescent psychotherapy, trauma, family systems, and grief. Supervision can offer you guidance and insight in navigating emotionally charged or ethically complex client work. -
Sustaining the Therapist
Burnout, self-doubt, and emotional fatigue are real experiences in therapeutic practice. Supervision with us provides space not just for case work, but for you, supporting your emotional wellbeing, reflective practice, and self-care.
