Supervision

Supervision sessions are available in person or online.

I have been qualified as a Clinical Psychologist since 2008 and have completed supervision training. I have supervised many Clinical and Counselling Psychologists throughout my career. I have also supervised members of the multidisciplinary teams I have worked in, including Physiotherapists and Nurses. My supervision role has allowed me to meet and connect with some wonderful colleagues.

In my leadership roles, alongside direct clinical supervision, I have also spent many years supporting psychologists to balance their caseloads to maintain wellbeing and work / life balance.

My main therapy approaches are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Therapy, but I draw from a range of models, including Compassion Focused Therapy. I have specialisms in trauma and physical health, particularly persistent / chronic pain. I am an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner.

My approach is flexible and if any urgent needs crop up for supervisees, I try to accommodate a brief call to chat things through.

Supervision is available in my clinic room in the centre of Morpeth or on Zoom / another video platform. Fees are £100 per hour. Please get in touch to discuss your needs and chat further.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had treatment with Dr Woods (Sarah!) for PTSD. She used trauma CBT and EMDR via Zoom for my treatment.
I was a touch sceptical but I cannot believe the difference between where I was, to where I am now.
I think the success of the treatment is mainly down to Sarah’s in depth knowledge and expertise but is also down to her ability to be genuine in her person centred approach.
I would definitely recommend giving Sarah a try for any type of psychological issues.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I absolutely recommend Sarah.  She has helped me with identifying issues, learning how to accept and deal with the problems and then taught me coping strategies for the future.  Sarah has taught me a number of exercises to help ground me, which help calm me at moments of intense anxiety.  The sessions are set at my pace and on my agenda.
