I have over a decades worth of experience both managing and supervising multidisciplinary teams that support children and families at risk of significant harm as well as personally working with children and families myself. I am able to offer a reflective clinical supervision space for individual team members or whole teams.
I encourage strong reflective practice, critical thinking, encouraging hypothesising and exploring evidence based trauma sensitive practice.
I am also able to support practitioners and teams to enhance their practices around supervision and reflective practice as a whole. This allows them to encourage exploring not only the risks, but also the possible roots of our worries for a child or family, then reflecting on frameworks that can be used to prevent these ongoing patterns of trauma. This involves systemic and trauma informed supervision frameworks.
Within each session, with agreement from the participant(s), I can also provide evidence based research, readings and tools to add to their 'tool kit'. I believe that by 'sharing the risk' with professionals that this will not only keep children safe, but reduce the burnout rate of practitioners working in the industry.
I am happy to complete all the relevant documentation and supervision learning agreements that services may need to be completed.
For group supervision or complex case discussion I can attend your office.
For individual supervision I have rooms in Sutherland.
