Working in the mental health space presents a set of ethical, interpersonal and professional issues that are unique to the niche kind of work we do. There's no other role quite like it. I became a Psychology Board of Australia Approved Supervisor after reflecting on my own experiences in clinical supervision, as my practice has benefitted from the skilled guidance of a great supervisory network. 

As a Clinical Psychologist, I believe that supervision should be a collaborative and reflective space, where practitioners may discuss cases, consider organisational, cultural, diversity and ethical issues, and develop their skills, while feeling heard, supported and encouraged. 

As mental health professionals, we know the interpersonal work we do makes us a little more prone to burnout, and this has been recognised in the new Code of Conduct for Psychologists (2025). Under the new code, Australian Psychologists are now required to take proactive steps to meaningfully and deliberately reflect on all aspects of their practice, including documenting clinical decisions. To have longevity in this work, and for the benefit of the therapeutic relationship, it helps to bring a reflective lens toward how we show up as therapists. I aim to provide a space that supports your growth in all of these important areas.
