My areas of knowledge include
-
Starting your career can be exciting and overwhelming. I provide a basis where we can take into account a code of ethics and values and ensure that they align with the work we are doing and how to incorporate them. I have had many years of experience providing field supervision to Final-year social work students.
-
I have supported several people in gaining their mental health accreditation. It can be overwhelming starting this process and I can help break it down into manageable aspects so you can be confident in your approach.
-
Many years of working in health means I understand the unique hierarchical aspects that impact work and have experience in working in a multidisciplinary team. I will work with you to promote social work identity, show value in social work roles and manage the interpersonal aspects of this field. We can also focus on burnout prevention and ensure compassion fatigue can be mitigated.
-
This type of role can be so meaningful and challenging. We can reflect on holding space for several clients a day, transference and the often inner conflict with the scope of the role and brief limited intervention framework. Exploring case conceptualisation to help target focus and increasing confidence to be comfortable with the breadth of client presentations are some ways I can help.
