Clinical Supervision
I have a Diploma in Clinical Supervision and have several years' experience in working with therapists on an individual and small group basis. I work with both trainee and qualified & experienced therapists.Personal & Professional Development Training
I offer training and development on a range of topics, however, an area of particular interest to me is rites of passage. Rites of passage are often major transition points in our lives that can offer an opportunity for enormous growth. For example, becoming a parent, reaching mid-life, the ending of a relationship, when a child leaves home, retirement, the death of a significant other, etc. In times past, the extended family, or the larger community often assisted with such transitions. In contemporary life however, these important passages sometimes have little recognition and we are often left to make sense of the experience for ourselves.
