Outdoor Supervision
In line with my clinical specialism in outdoor therapy, I have many years experience in supervising outdoor practitioners. My outdoor supervisory work extends the traditional supervisory process to include a live embodied process of working with a natural setting. This work is strongly influenced by bodywork and Amerta movement practice, as well as building on creative approaches to supervision.
My approach is especially suited to outdoor practitioners who wish to learn about incorporating the place in their practice rather than simply working with it as a backdrop to a traditional therapy process.
I work outside in Buxton.
I welcome requests for less frequent consultative supervision from outdoor practitioners who are in other geographical locations, including those living outside the UK. This is conducted via phone - where we can work together on the move in our respective outdoor spaces - or Zoom.
Supervision Qualifications & Experience
I have a Diploma in Creative Approaches to Supervision from the London Centre for Psychodrama and from 2010 - 2025 was a Provisional Teaching and Supervising Analyst which meant that I undertook considerable amounts of teaching and supervising CPD to support my practice.
During this time as well as running my own training programmes and working at various TA training organisations in the UK, I have been visiting lead ecological trainer at Red Kite Training in Liverpool. Red Kite Training is a pioneering institution in the UK being the first mainstream training program to offer an ecological approach to Masters level psychotherapy training.
