Passionate About Inspiring Others
Take a Practice Pause...

Taking time out of our practice to look at our practice.

We are all busy practitioners striving to do the best we can for our clients and it's rare that we get the time to sit and review how things are going.  I offer you the opportunity to take a regular breathing space, removing yourself from your workload.  In a calm, safe and secure place, you'll be able to note patterns, make observations and perhaps consider alternatives.  I offer the opportunity to keep your practice fresh and return to work with more balance and enhanced perspectives.

Supervision means having someone to enhance our superior vision.  Looking at what we are doing from many different angles.
