Supervision Services
Supervision is an important part of my practice. I became a board approved supervisor in 2011, and since that time have provided supervision to those on the 4+2 pathway, students engaged in 5+1 or Clinical Masters programs, those on the clinical psychology registrar pathway, and also to Psychologists and colleagues in the mental health professions.
My supervisory experience has been a very enjoyable and fulfilling aspect of my career and has also familiarized me with the various workplaces with which psychologists are engaged, in the public, not-for-profit, and private sectors.
I have also worked for the APS on the Professional Advisory Service, providing advice and guidance to registered Psychologists across a range of complex issues relating to professional practice. My career has included working in metropolitan areas, as well as living in regional city in South East Queensland, and so I appreciate the different challenges between city and regionally based psychologists and allied health professionals.
My particular interest in supporting mental health professionals is assisting with issues relating to their professional practice including vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue and burnout. On occasion, I offer group supervision to complement those undertaking individual supervision towards clinical endorsement. Group supervision is an effective means of receiving constructive input into your professional development and provides collegial support for those who otherwise may feel isolated in their professional practice. Group supervision is also cost-effective, using being less expensive than individual supervision sessions. Groups also provide an environment that enhances the learning and development of those who participate. Group supervision is one of the more rewarding experiences for me as a supervisor.
Individual and group supervision services are also offered online via Zoom and are therefore available to Psychologists in metropoliton and regional areas of Australia and Internationally.
