< Back Vicky Finlayson Kia ora, I whakapapa from Northwestern Europe, through to Australia and Aotearoa. Born in Wellington I have called Aotearoa my home throughout my life and lived on the coast and in cities. I have two adult sons and 3 grandchildren. I work online only as I am currently travelling about NZ with my dog Wesley. There is space for new supervisees including people applying for NZAC full membership. My Approach My approach in supervision is one of warmth, encouragement, collaborative, reflective, responsive and practical. I have worked in NGO's over the past 15 years in various roles including Youth Support Worker, Lead Practitioner and Family Support Worker. I have a passion for supporting practitioners so they can continue to do the amazing mahi in Aotearoa, New Zealand. As a supervisor I have a passion for working with mental health and other professionals in maintaining their professional practice, navigating the issues which arise at work and sustaining professional wellbeing. Supervision is a reflective process, supporting people to prevent work place burn out, ethical professional practice and functional aspects of the work. My way of working with supervisees is building relationships which offer practical conversations, exploring how a person can move forward with what ever issues they are facing in their mahi. I am also mindful of practitioners wellbeing and encourage holistic conversations to support the whole person.

< Back Anne Honey-Monk Hi there, my name is Anne i am on level 49 in the game of life. I have one husband, two adult children and two very precious beautiful mokopuna. I have an "old McDonald type home life which includes Teddy the Border Collie, his two fur cat sisters Incah and Thai, Pigs along with piglets, too many chickens to count and the good old sheep n lambs. Life is fairly diverse to say the least. Finding my own place in a complicated world has gifted me the ability to see the potential of growth we all have within. Life can be a rollercoaster and having the ability to know how to get on and off the platform is crucial in self-care. I absolutely love working alongside people in their journey of self-awareness, acceptance and finding what matters in their life. I entered into the helping profession from a relatively young level of life approx. level 23 where i assisted youth at risk. From there I grew as a Tautoko Whanau worker which rolled into over a century of frontline child protection. Today at level 49 i am a qualified health improvement practitioner which I absolutely love every day. Through my journey of getting here i have learnt many lessons in the helping profession with the number one being self-care - this is what i promote in my supervision practice. My Approach External supervision offers a valuable opportunity to reflect critically on your practice, gain new perspectives, and enhance your professional development, ultimately improving service delivery and self-care. It may aid you in developing leadership skills with a focus of self-awareness, and confidence, and encourages reflective practice and continuous learning. As I am trained in functional acceptance, commitment therapy (FACT) a focus I bring into my external supervision sessions is self-acceptance and commitment. In this space I, as a supervisor would walk beside you through your critical reflection as this would be your journey - You are the professional in your life including your practice I am just there to provide gentle guidance.

< Back Mark Donaldson Kia Ora - I'm Mark, founder of Pulse360 Supervision & Training and a professional supervisor with 20+ years of frontline, leadership, and clinical experience across youth justice, care and protection, addiction services, and community development - the majority in South Auckland. My work has taken place across homes, custody units, residential rehabilitation, courts, prisons, and community programmes - supporting young people impacted by trauma, violence, long-term addiction, and intergenerational harm, alongside the practitioners who carry this work. As Clinical Lead and Operations Manager within New Zealand's first successful Social Bond programme, I worked at the intersection of relational practice, outcomes accountability, and funder scrutiny - managing complex, high-risk caseloads and providing clinical oversight across multidisciplinary teams. I understand the weight of youth development mahi from the inside. My role as a supervisor is to provide a grounded, honest space where youth workers can reflect on their practice, stay anchored to their judgement, and sustain themselves in demanding work over time. I offer supervision online and in-person, individually and for teams, and I'm available to work with youth workers and youth development practitioners at any stage of their career - from those just starting out to experienced practitioners carrying complex caseloads. My Approach My approach to supervision is relational, reflective, and grounded in the realities of frontline practice - not theory alone. I draw on 20+ years of direct experience in high-pressure, high-stakes environments to provide supervision that is honest, practical, and shaped to each supervisee's role and context. I meet people where they are - not where a framework says they should be. Sessions create space for youth workers to reflect on complex situations, process the emotional weight of the mahi, navigate ethical tension and risk, and stay connected to purpose under sustained pressure. I pay close attention to what people bring and what they're avoiding - and I ask the questions that are sometimes hard to sit with. I hold a strengths-based orientation while remaining direct when clarity is needed. I am committed to working in ways that are culturally responsive, and I bring particular experience working alongside practitioners supporting Māori and Pasifika young people and whānau in South Auckland communities. Supervision with me is confidential, consistent, and genuinely focused on the person doing the work - not just the work itself.

< Back Paola Montanaro Kia ora, I'm an Italian therapist and I offer supervision for professionals and trauma specialised therapy for adults and couples. I have worked as a psychologist and a psychotherapist during more than 20 years in six countries and in four languages. I arrived in beautiful NZ some years ago, following my passion for whales and dolphins. Here I offer my services as a registered Counsellor and an EMDR certified therapist (AI and IFS informed). I have the expertise and experience to work with psychological and emotional issues ranging from everyday worries to complex mental health concerns. I work with adults, couples, professionals and for several Governmental and private agencies. I strive to approach the therapeutic work in a culturally competent manner and to create a strong therapeutic bond in which clients are emotionally validated and feel “seen” and appreciated. This is achieved through a deliberate, precise, and mindful intervention where both me as a therapist and the client contribute with mental, emotional, spiritual, and ethical dedication. My Approach I offer engaging supervision centered on the supervisee’s needs and focused on enhancing self-reflection, self-awareness, and the development of skills and knowledge. As a supervisor, I incorporate my experience in trauma therapy and several psychological methodologies, including Existential Client-Centered Therapy and Systemic Therapy, among others. Placing a strong emphasis on the self, I work with the supervisee to set personal goals for professional development. Currently, I am providing supervision to individuals who work in cross-cultural mental health, drug and alcohol, family support and child and adolescent mental health settings. Supervision is tailored to meet the specific needs of the person.

< Back Tessa Aranga Mauri ora! Ko Tessa Aranga ahau. Ko Ngāi Tūhoe me Ngāpuhi ngā iwi. I am a registered social worker with 12 years’ experience across statutory and community organisations, which has enabled me to develop a strong, adaptable practice grounded in the core competencies of the Aotearoa New Zealand Association of Social Workers (ANZASW). My mahi is guided by a commitment to ethical, accountable, and reflective practice, with a focus on upholding the mana, dignity, and self-determination of the whānau I serve. Since 2023, I have been providing professional and cultural supervision, where I support practitioners to strengthen their critical reflection, professional judgement, and culturally responsive practice. I have a particular passion for supporting practitioners working alongside Māori whānau. I am committed to strengthening culturally grounded practice by supporting kaimahi to uphold Te Tiriti o Waitangi in their mahi, engage in meaningful partnerships, and work in ways that are mana-enhancing and responsive to the aspirations of whānau Māori. I provide dedicated tautoko for those seeking to build their cultural capability, confidence, and understanding, ensuring their practice is both ethically sound and culturally safe. I believe that strong, reflective supervision is essential in sustaining kaimahi to do this important mahi well, particularly when working with whānau experiencing vulnerability, and I am dedicated to walking alongside practitioners as they grow and thrive in their practice. My Approach My supervision approach is grounded in Te Ao Māori, centering mātauranga Māori and holistic frameworks to guide practice. I integrate Te Whare Tapa Whā to support the overall hauora of kaimahi, recognising the interconnectedness of wairua, hinengaro, tinana, and whānau. This enables practitioners to deepen their self-awareness, resilience, and capacity to work effectively in complex environments. I offer a safe and trusting supervision space where kaimahi can engage in honest reflection, challenge practice, and grow their confidence and competence in their practice.
