Online Clinical Supervision and Case Consultation

With Sandy Kirkwood, BCACC Approved Clinical Supervisor

 

If you have chosen to be a counsellor, then you are already on what I call the wisdom path. This is important work and we bring our whole selves to it. One reason why I chose to become a therapist and supervisor is that I am a huge believer in the ripple effect. As I work with you, and you work with your clients, together our skills and expertise ripple out to create positive change in the world.

I’ve been fortunate enough to work with counsellors throughout the development process from beginning practicum students to seasoned professionals. The qualities I bring to Supervision and Case Consultation are sound clinical knowledge and expertise, strong ethical and personal integrity, clear and direct communication, tempered with huge empathy and compassion for the very human struggles of both clients and therapists. In addition to 13 years as a therapist, I bring life experience as a teacher, vice-principal, high school counsellor, crisis support volunteer, parent, step-parent and parenting group facilitator.

I deeply appreciate how vulnerable it can be to seek supervision and consultation, if you are worried you might be judged. Let me assure you that wherever you are on your own learning journey, I absolutely respect your desire to grow personally and professionally. We are all works in progress and there is much joy and learning when we can connect and share ideas together!
