Clinical Supervision

Supervision is built on a relationship of trust, openness and honesty. At times challenging but always empowering, validating and a space for deeper exploration of our work and ourselves.

Naelah offers Clinical supervision to psychotherapists, counsellors, trainees and mental health professionals, either individually or in groups to explore their practice. Supervision fosters a deeper understanding of client work, personal development and resilience, ensuring best practice by enhancing professional growth, ethical awareness and clinical effectiveness through guidance, discussion, feedback and self-reflection.

Naelah facilitates supervision groups in charities with practitioners of mixed modalities. She also runs reflective groups for organisations seeking a space to think about their ‘in the field’ working experiences and responses, to learn from them and develop an action plan for what can be done differently in the future.

Philosophy of Psychotherapy and Counselling

Naelah's approach to therapy involves developing close, collaborative relationships with clients. Creating a safe, non-judgmental, confidential space allows for deeper self-exploration and connection that provides an opportunity to understand the underlying causes of difficulty.

Often our behaviour, beliefs and insecutionrities develop early in life. They help us to adapt to experiences our younger selves cannot make sense of. Later life events can modify or confirm these and alter our worldview. Exploring the origin of these beliefs in therapy can be helpful. Through questioning their value in your current life, you can learn to change and overcome them.

What is Integrative Psychotherapy?

Integrative therapy recognises that each person is unique and what works for you may not work for everyone. Rather than focusing on a single therapeutic method, Integrative Therapy combines different models of psychotherapy to create a bespoke approach tailored to each individual or couple's needs.

The aim of sessions are to help you function at your personal best in all areas of life, be it mental, physical, emotional, social, relational and/or psychological.
