Clinical Supervision & Clinical Supervision in Private Practice
If you’re inspired to reach your potential, for the benefits of both yourself and your clients you will need the support of an effective supervision relationship that will use your challenging experiences to raise your awareness and transform them into exciting opportunities for growth.
With over 25 years of clinical supervisory experience working with individuals with both the Public and Private sector, Lisa has developed a successful model for clinical supervision relevant to Clinicians working in an organizational or private practice setting.
The model used for supervision is scientifically inspired through the practical application of Emotion-Focused, Narrative, and Mindful approaches and encourages practitioners within a safe supportive experience to cultivate self-awareness and reflection. As foundational approach sessions are grounded in the outstanding supervisory theoretical approaches of Margaret Morell and Marsha Linehan. Good supervision is designed to identify and validate challenges, so the learning identified, processed to enable identifying the change required and plan to achieve the outcomes sought. Struggle and success are both recognized as being as equally relevant. Feedback is framed in a supportive and strength-based manner to align with standards based on those defined by the Australian Association of Social Workers, the International Federation of Social Workers.
In a Clinical Supervision session, you can expect:
- A focus on the strategies, values, and processes currently being used
- The application of functional, reflective, appreciative inquiry & coaching models in supervision
- Effective strategies for working with a range of learning needs
- Managing ethical issues & accountability, including recording & contracts.
'Working with Lisa as my supervisor over the past four years has had a significant, positive impact on my own practice. Lisa has been of great support to me in my transition from a graduate to professional - facilitating my professional growth in several domains of my practice with her intelligence, grace and strength. Her integrative, flexible and compassionate approach in supervision has been extremely beneficial to me.
Lisa confidently facilitates a variety of techniques and approaches based on the individual’s’ situation, which allows her the unique ability to work effectively with whatever arises. Her intuitive approach is both refreshing and assuring. Lisa has a way of helping me to adjust my perspective so that the possibilities that I had not previously considered are broadened when I work with her. I always leave supervision with Lisa feeling like I got what I needed and know how to proceed'.

Lisa's broad professional background, success in private practice and understanding of importance of a niched private practice has helped bring the best of me to both my clinical and business success'.
