Supervision.
Forensic psychology can be a challenging yet stimulating field of work. Finding the balance between maintaining good boundaries and meaningfully connecting with clients involved in the justice system can be a tricky line to navigate. Whether you're a forensic psychologist, or a psychologist working in the forensic field, or maybe have an unexpected forensic issue come up in therapy - good supervision is vital in keeping a keen ear out for boundary violations, ethical and mandatory reporting responsibilities, countertransference, vicarious trauma, and slips in self-care. We all have our stuck points and client presentations which are particularly challenging to sit with - maybe it's anger or hostility, or certain offending behaviours, or how good in-session engagement doesn't translate to out-of-session change... Maybe it's feeling intimidated by a client, or disinterest. Maybe even dislike. I feel strongly that all psychologists need a space to safely explore these feelings or scenarios, and where needed, adapt or modify our practice. Especially in the forensic field, where all of this occurs alongside assessment and management of risk of re-offending, or harm to others; and sometimes, preparing for court.

I also supervise psychologists seeking to instill a stronger schema therapy lens into their practice, and as an accredited schema therapy supervisor, I can support you on your journey towards schema therapy certification. For information on schema therapy supervision and/or tape ratings for certification, send me a message via the Contact Me page.

Training.
Instilling trauma-informed care when working with justice-involved individuals.
This training provides an overview of trauma-informed care and considers opportunities for instilling trauma-informed care and practice within services working with justice-involved clients. At the completion of this training, participants should have an understanding of the ethos, principles, and research underlying trauma-informed care, and practical approaches to enlivening trauma-informed care in their workplace. As part of this, participants will be invited to undertake personal reflection about their approaches towards clients, colleagues, and self-care.
This full-day workshop is suitable for clinicians working with justice-involved clients, whether in community, inpatient, or custodial settings. This training is also suitable for those who manage or supervise clinicians in such client-facing roles.
Unfortunately, this year's publicly held workshop just occurred in April 2026. If you are interested in arranging this training separately for your team, please contact me using the message function here.
