Counsellors and Practicum Students

I provide consultation and supervision to counsellors and practicum students, working in a strength-based and non-hierarchical framework. I provide consultation on a one-to-one basis or with your counselling team on an ongoing basis.

Together we:

• Process challenging, complex, and high-risk client cases

• Build personal capacity to prevent burnout or compassion fatigue

• Nurture and sustain your passion for the work

• Strategize how to increase knowledge, skills, competence, and confidence

• Increase awareness of the impact of power and privilege

• Integrate your clinical approach with the principles your workplace is modelled on and/or understand where you may differ from them

• Uncover possible discomforts with professional ethics and required standards

• Address standards (such as accreditation expectations) and personal barriers with documentation (session notes and assessments)

Counsellors whom I support consistently say that they know me to bring presence, care, heart, respect, sincerity, and experience to our work together.
