Supervision, Training and Consultancy

I am a Psychology Board of Australia registered supervisor and offer individual supervision or group supervision and reflective practice programs.

 

Practitioners working with mental health challenges are vulnerable to vicarious traumatisation. Supervision provides a containing and holding environment to promote understanding of challenging behaviours among those they work with, make links to theory, explore the impact of the work on oneself, and think reflectively about responding therapeutically and using evidence-based interventions.

 

Areas of consultation interest include attachment, perinatal mental health, women's health, single incident, complex and developmental trauma, trauma-informed care and well-being. 

 

I also deliver training to organisations including community services, kindergartens and schools in the following areas:

  • Trauma Informed Practice

  • Understanding Trauma Based Behaviours 

  • Attachment

  • Incorporating Sensory Motor Interventions into Therapeutic Practice

  • Preventing Vicarious Trauma for Professionals

I respectfully acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which I practice, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. I also acknowledge the broader Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community and honour their strength and resilience; continuing connection to land, seas, and waters; and contributions to community, health and healing.

I acknowledge the existence of ongoing discrimination, oppression, and the exploitation and abuse of power and privilege in our country which has contributed to the adverse experiences of many individuals who seek support through psychology services.

In this spirit, I aim to cultivate a welcoming and inclusive practice which honours diversity. I commit to explore and challenge my own biases as I seek to understand the experiences of those with whom I have the privilege of working.
