Overview

Please provide an overview of your experience as a CFT therapist and supervisor including training and workshops you have attended on CFT and supervision.

I offer Compassion Focused Supervision, bringing compassion into the supervision process itself for an experiential and relational learning experience. With safeness and courage, we can develop your CFT or integrative practice, cultivate your ‘compassionate therapist self’, and support/empower you as a human being. Half my week is spent supporting colleagues with supervision and training, including supervision for the CFT Diploma. I’m an experienced CFT therapist, working with adults with Complex Trauma/Anxiety/Depression in private practice (formerly NHS IAPT/CMHT), and I also draw on ACT and EMDR. My training includes the CMF’s supervisor training, as well as many CFT workshops and conferences including advanced clinical skills, chairwork, personal practice, PDs and attachment problems, FBRs and trauma. I have regular CFT supervision and supervision-of-supervision. I have a certificate in supervision from the University of Birmingham (2015) and am a BABCP Accredited Supervisor.

If you are a dedicated mental health professional seeking guidance and supervision to enhance your skills in using the model of Compassion Focused Therapy, I would be happy to speak with you regarding consultation/supervision. I am a highly experienced Registered Nurse and Registered Psychotherapist, with over 30 years of experience in the mental health field and I would be happy to support you on your journey. I have extensive background in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I specialize in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) in individual psychotherapy. I have engaged in extensive training and consultation with Paul Gilbert and senior trainers in the CFT community. I have training and experience in using CFT for Anxiety, OCD, PTSD and Trauma, Depression, Psychosis, and other difficulties. I also have training in other in evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, IPT, and Mindfulness-based therapies. I integrate interventions from these therapies into CFT to each address each client's unique needs, offering them a comprehensive and effective therapeutic experience. I have a strong commitment to professional development and sharing knowledge. My passion for Compassion Focused Therapy led me to become a founding member of the Canadian Network - Compassion Focused Therapy - Réseau Canadien. I facilitate online CFT peer consultation groups and in-person meetings for therapists in Toronto, fostering a collaborative community of learning and growth. I also practice and teach in the Korean Ganhwasoen (Koan Zen) tradition, having received Dharma Transmission from my teacher in 2013.

I am both clinical and pastoral counselor, and a psychodynamic psychotherapist, and I work as a private practitioner, first responder and supervisor. I started training in 2006 at the Institute of Counselling in Glasgow specialising in Couples and Family issues, Grief and Bereavement, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorders. I then continued with courses related to Couples and Family issues and Traumas at TCCR, Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships, followed by training in psychodynamic psychotherapy at the University of Essex and pursued more studies at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust. I completed a post-graduate psychotherapy degree at the psychiatric at Claude Bernard University Lyon 1 / CHU hospital Vinatier in Lyon and continued with residential and summer schools at TCCR to further her experience in relationships and families. In 2017 I was introduced to CFT by Chris Irons and throughout the years I have continued my training in CFT, which I now essentially apply in therapy. I facilitate the online European CFT peer support and intervention group. Training: Basic Skills in CFT and Advanced Clinical Skills in CFT training by Chris Irons and Professor Paul Gilbert, Compassion Focused Therapy for Groups with Kate Lucre, CFT and Depression, Application Pratique with D.F. Gheysen and Prof P. Gilbert, Developing CFT and Complex cases by Prof. Paul Gilbert, Developing as a Clinical Supervisor for CFT therapists. Experience: I have been in private practice since 2011 and have been working with CFT since 2018, also in group settings.
