The Quiet Room

15/11/2023

Are you a Psychotherapist or Counsellor working in Jersey with adults or children over 11 looking for a supervisor? Perhaps you want to consider a different perspective, a new way of reflecting on your work and developing your practice.

I am currently in training with Terapia.co.uk on their UKCP approved Diploma in Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychotherapy and Counselling Supervision and I am seeking therapists seeking a supervisor. I am also available to work with agencies and support their counsellors.

If you would like to meet and explore how we might work together please DM me or take a look at my website for more details about me.

The Quiet Room is a Therapy practice, specialising in working with adults and children. I work hours that can match your life and work needs.
