Trauma-informed, practical supervision for clinicians

​

I offer clinical supervision that is grounded, collaborative, and focused on safe, ethical, real-world practice.

My approach is trauma-informed and paced. We’ll keep it practical: clear case formulation, thoughtful planning, and support with the parts of the work that can feel complex or heavy.

​

​

Who this is for

​

Supervision is a good fit if you’re:

• A social worker (my primary focus), or another allied health clinician working in mental health

• Early career, returning to practice, or wanting to strengthen your confidence with complex presentations

• Working with clients experiencing trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence (ADHD/Autism/AuDHD), eating concerns, or gender dysphoria

• Wanting a supervision space that is warm, structured, and not performative

• You’re stepping into complex trauma work and want a steadier framework

• You want support with pacing, stabilisation, and boundaries

• You want supervision that’s structured and practical

​

What we can focus on

​

Depending on your needs, supervision may include:

• Case formulation and treatment planning (including pacing and stabilisation)

• Trauma-informed practice and working with triggers

• EMDR-informed conceptualisation (even if you’re not using EMDR)

• Risk assessment, safety planning, and clinical decision-making

• Boundaries, ethics, documentation, and navigating systems

• Reflective practice and clinician wellbeing (in a realistic, sustainable way)

​

How it works

• Session length: 50 minutes

• Format: in-person (Geelong) or telehealth

• Frequency: fortnightly or monthly (depending on your requirements and capacity)
