Supervisors who work at the Centre
Katherine Lee
Certificate in Supervision Skills (AEB) (1999) Huntingdon Regional College. Post Graduate Diploma in Creative Approaches to Supervision (2016) London Institute of Psychodrama
I am an experienced supervisor, who has worked with teams, groups and individuals since my first supervision training in 1999. For many years, I have supervised in both statutory and charitable sector, and have an understanding of the organisational pressures which exist for those working within these contexts. I have extensive experience of supervising trainee counsellors, within a college or placement context.
I also offer clinical supervision or ‘reflective practice’ to those who are not counsellors but work in related professions , such as social workers, school staff, and nurses.
I have undertaken ongoing additional supervision trainings including participating in ‘The Growing Edge’ (2003/4), a supervision study group, at the Metanoia Institute, subsequently supported by an ongoing supervisory enquiry group, with Ann Kearns.
My recent training at the London Institute for Psychodrama, has developed my interest in integrating creative ways of working into the supervisory enquiry.
I also offer supervision/consultancy for supervisors

I have many years’ experience of supervising counsellors (both experienced and trainees), individually and in groups.
In 2003/4 I participated in a supervisory study group,’ The Growing Edge’, at the Metanoia Institute, which offered post qualification training in clinical practice and supervision. This was followed by an ongoing supervisory enquiry group.
Over the years I have provided clinical supervision/reflective practice to other professionals (eg. social workers, probation officers) and organisational supervision to groups/teams , thus building a rich experience and understanding of organizational issues and how they impact on the individual workers and their practice.

Ann Edwards:
Diploma in Relationship Based Supervision of Individuals and Groups IBIS Consultancy (2009)
I am a qualified supervisor offering clinical supervision to both individuals and groups. In 2009 I trained with IBIS Consultancy and gained a Diploma in Relationship Based Supervision of Individuals and Groups. This training was based on Inskipp and Proctor’s model of supervision and integrated using creative approaches to the formative, normative and restorative functions of supervision. In 2011, I completed an Advanced BASIC Ph training with Mooli Lahad.
My supervision is interactive, collaborative and underpinned by psychodynamic thinking. I integrate creative skills into my supervision and offer a safe place for my supervisees to be contained, challenged and to reflect on their work.
I have extensive experience of working within a school context and a good understanding of some of the challenges faced by counsellors working in this area. I work with qualified and trainee counsellors, play therapists and in the past, groups of trainee play therapists.
Fees:
£50 per 60 minute session for individuals. (Student rates can be negotiated).
