I have worked with numerous individuals, couples, and groups of all ages and ethnicities. In those 18 years, I have only worked within government agencies. But have networked with, and along side a lot of community agencies.
I have a good understanding of mental health and addictions services and therefore the stress and pressures this can cause. I have also worked in areas of care and protection and probation services.
I have been doing supervision now for ten years, and I have also done a Masters paper in supervision. Supervision to me has kept in my work environment, and has helped me to be more balance and safe in my practice, reflect more, and be more professional.
