Clinical Supervision & Leadership Consultation
Welcome to person2person Consulting
Hi, I’m Melinda. I am a clinical supervisor with over 30 years professional experience and qualifications in mental health social work, public service management and relationship therapy.
Helping the Helpers
At person2person Consulting I provide clinical supervision and leadership consultation to social workers, mental health practitioners and other professionals providing trauma informed practice e.g. lawyers. Building self-awareness, helping you uncover your professional strengths and enhancing your work with clients is at the heart of what I do.
I look forward to meeting you! Take the next step and touch base.
As a social worker, mental health practitioner or lawyer, working with traumatised clients in stretched organisations, you will understand the importance of having a sounding board.
I’ve heard you say that you are looking for debriefing and personal strategies to manage your emotional responses to hearing challenging personal stories. You care about social justice and want to explore ethical and organisational issues that arise in the work.
You have told me that you value knowledge building, want to develop problem solving strategies and develop your professional and communication skills to handle challenging interpersonal situations. You know that self-care and boundaries are important but need a little encouragement now and then. You want to apply theory to practice, consider career goals and build leadership skills. And sometimes you just want to reflect on what you don’t know yet.
How Can I Help You
At person2person Consulting, I offer clinical supervision and leadership consultation to support and empower you at every stage of your work life. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting your career, I work with you to build your skills, knowledge, confidence and career direction, to help you stay focused, reflective and engaged in your role.
I offer flexible online support that fits your busy work schedule.
