Compassionate. Creative. Effective.
Offering Supervision, Psychotherapy and Consultation services.
SUPERVISION:
I take a strengths based, solution focused approach to supervision.
I will support you in case conceptualization, help you to expand your view of the case, role reverse with clients, and address any transference issues. I have a strong background in systems work and believe that clients do what they do for a reason. I support you in assessing what is driving client issues to help support clients with effective resolution.
I integrate current theories of interpersonal neurobiology, trauma approaches and depth psychology in my approach to supervision.
