I deeply value the importance of the Kaitiaki/supervision relationship and the need to provide a safe, supportive space where there is the freedom to openly express yourself – with the confidence that your voice will be heard in an empathic, confidential and non-judgemental setting.
My supervision practice is based on upholding Mana of both the supervisee and supervisor- Mana Atua, Mana Tipuna, Mana Tangata, Mana Motuhake. This is a reflective practice using my own reflection framework called KA TU TE MANA – KA TU TE ORA
I also have experience and ongoing interest in the areas of student supervision and the benefits of group and peer supervision.
I am available to provide supervision face to face and/or via zoom or skype
