Mairi McAllister-Trauma Informed Counselling

Counselling in Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland

Supervision

I have been a supervisor since 2018 and work with both Counsellors and Support Workers. My background in the Voluntary sector In Survivor agencies, where support workers often worked with complex clients and where Counselling wasn’t the predominant service, means I have been able to support workers who may have minimal or no Counselling training.

Most of my clients are either Students or fully Qualified Counsellors. Having been a tutor on a Counselling diploma I believe I can support students to integrate the theory into their practice and work with them to manage the experiences they will face in the room that cannot be taught in a classroom.

Again, relationship is key. I aim to crate a safe and supportive space where its safe to share uncertainty, fears, mistakes, and conflicts, encourage self-awareness, insight and compassion.

I integrate the use of my CI (compassionate enquiry) training into sessions and encourage supervisees to pay attention to their own somatic responses, both in supervision and with their clients, Gabor Mate suggests ‘every tension needs attention’.
