My 'Dual-Lens' Approach to Supervision
Many people find that supervision works best when it looks at the whole picture. I use a Dual-Lens approach to ensure our time together is as practical as it is supportive:
​
-
The Clinical Lens: We focus on the safety and wellbeing of your clients. This is a space to offload, reflect on your modalities amd ensure you are providing the best possible care with absolute confidence.
-
The Practitioner Lens: We focus on you and the terrain of your career. This includes looking at your resilience, preventing burnout, and the practicalities of running your business. Whether you are navigating the transition to self-employment or exploring ways to establish passive income, this lens ensures your practice remains sustainable and inspiring.
”Loraine has been my supervisor for several years now and has always offered an incredibly warm, friendly and helpful ear. Loraine’s supervision has allowed my confidence to grow - especially in those moments of self doubt. Loraine has gently encouraged me to celebrate my strengths and use these as positive ways to grow my business. She has also helped me identify areas of growth and ways to improve my business and skill set. Loraine is both warm and professional with a wealth of knowledge that has really helped me to help my clients”. E - Milton Keynes

The New Therapist
As a new therapist, setting up in practice can be a daunting experience. The supervision I offer can include helping you set up your business, giving you ideas for you office systems and marketing, how to handle your clients and how to get the best results for you and your clients. Many new therapists also find it helpful to discuss how to diversify their income early on, such as creating guided meditation MP3s or building a digial presence that reflects their unique voice.
Reflection
There are many different styles of supervision. I like to work reflectively, where the therapist is setting goals, looking at the steps needed to achieve them and then reflecting on the steps, adjusting if necessary so as to achieve their goals. Reflective practice can be used in both individual and group supervision.
How long are supervision sessions?
This will depend on your registered association as they can all differ slightly from being one to one and a half hours. The amount of sessions again can differ from 5-10 a year to monthly. I will adjust the sessions we do to work with both your association and what works best for you and your requirements.
What about confidentiality?
Whether individual or group supervision, it is extremely important to keep your client's identity confidential. Supervision is the only place where you can discuss any of your clients and seek help or 'offload', this is why supervision is so important not only to the new therapist but also the seasoned professional.
How do I know your the right supervisor for me?
I believe supervision is the same as therapy, you need to have the right person to match your style, as well as the modalities you use and the clients you see. I work with children, adolescents and adults. I offer a free, no obligation, meeting where we can discuss your supervision requirements and decide whether we are happy working together and whether you require individual or group supervision depending on your experience and circumstances.
The Seasoned Professional
As professional therapists we all know we need to avoid 'burn out' and have an outlet to be able to discuss the client that, on occassions, we may struggle with. Even with years of experience, we all face terrains that feel steeper than others. Group or Peer Supervision is a brilliant way to do this in a professional environment. My supervision for seasoned professionals focuses on maintaining your passion, refining advanced modalities and ensuring your business continues to serve your wellbeing. It can be refreshing for your business when colleagues share new ideas or marketing innovations. While continual supervision may not always be a strict requirement of your association, it is a vital requirement for your business health and your own personal peace of mind. As well as clinical support, we can use our time to explore the next steps for your practice, ensuring it remains as sustainable as it is successful.
Are you a Qualified Supervisor?
Yes, I have taken an extensive supervisor course which included practical work and a written assessment. As an accredited member of several professional associations and registers, I have had my qualifications verified. For my own working practice I make sure that my qualifications are kept up to date with Continuous Professional Development (CPD) on various aspects of the therapies that I offer every year. Each of these associations and registers have their own minimum levels of CPD that is required on an annual basis.
