I am qualified as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist having trained at the Quest Institute with Trevor Sylvester. I have also attained my Master Practitioner in NLP, again at the Quest Institute and after 3 years of seeing clients and some additional training in addiction, smoking cessation and further NLP work outside of the Quest fold, I felt the desire to go a little further. It was after taking part as an assistant during the training of new therapists on Q39 (Quest’s 39th diploma course) that I realised how much I love helping people to learn their skillsets. It seemed logical to me that the next step was Supervisor training.
I am an Accredited Hypnotherapy Supervisor. My diploma was awarded from the NCH in Solution Focused Supervision. As I have progressed as a therapist, the benefits of hypnotherapy supervision have become more and more apparent. Coupled with having had a great supervisor for myself over the last few years. I continue to be in supervision myself even though, as a therapist, I am no longer obliged to do so. The reason for this is simple. For me, the understanding is that my client’s wellbeing is at the heart of everything I do and it is in the interest of safety for all concerned that good supervision is still an important part of my journey and my growth. Wether you are an experienced therapist or a trainee looking for supervision to help you during those delicate steps when you start with your early clients, then perhaps I can be of service. I like to think of supervision as a path we travel together as “fallible fellow-travellers”, where we can both learn, along the way.
