Who am I?

Hey, my name is Tom - I’m a psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, counselling tutor, writer and more recently a queer parent. I’ve been practising as a therapist for eight years and have delivered over 6,000 hours of clinical work. I care deeply about this profession and the people I work with.

Over the past three years, I’ve been developing my skills as a qualified clinical supervisor, moving from not particularly enjoying supervision, to discovering the supervisor I want to be. A supervisor who is there to support your clients, your practice and YOU.

In 2026, I hope supervision will form a much larger part of my practice.

Most of my work is supporting adult clients who are queer. I also work closely with neurodivergent folks - birds of a feather and all that. In clinical supervision I work with supervisees who usually - but not always - work with a similar client group to my own. I am also a Level 2 and 3 counselling tutor and writer.

My approach to therapy is eclectic. Officially I work in a person centred and psychodynamic way. However you can find a lot of existential therapy, in there too, a smidge of transactional analysis and a tad of solution focused. I will adapt and change around my clients wants and needs.

Who is this for?

This space is for therapists, supervisors, and mental health practitioners who want a supportive place to explore supervision, expand their ways of working, and deepen self-reflection through thoughtful prompts for clinical practice.

It’s a space to connect, learn, and grow.

Why this space exists

I wanted to create something for my current supervisees, as well as those who may wish to work with me but can’t due to cost, location, availability, or simply not needing formal supervision right now.

My current clinical supervisees receive full, free access to this Substack as part of our work together. Everyone else can access most of the content through a paid subscription, (paywall activates late January 2026). This will help keep this space sustainable.

What to expect

Posts will arrive in your inbox on Mondays. You can expect one or two posts per month, with evolving themes and formats as I find my feet.

Posts will include:

• Reflective practice prompts for you

• Prompts you might choose to use with your clients

• Personal reflections from my clinical, supervision, and teaching work

• Resources I’ve found helpful and relevant

Tom
