Your Partner in Professional Growth & A Thriving Counselling Career
Join our group supervision sessions, where Australian counsellors, from students to seasoned professionals, come together in a supportive and friendly environment. These sessions are all about shared learning, mutual support, and professional growth, with a focus on building strong collegial connections.
With my extensive experience in counselling and supervision, I create a space where you can share insights, solve problems together, and network. Our group sessions reduce isolation, foster community, and empower you to navigate your professional journey with confidence and connection.
GROUP SUPERVISION IS RELEASED FOR BOOKING ONE MONTH AT A TIME
Our groups are open groups, meaning that they are open each month for anyone to join. The reason I release only one month at a time is so that it is fair and equitable to everyone. This means that everyone has the same opportunity to book supervision each month.
I run approximately nine regular ACA groups a month and one school counsellors group and they are released via my booking system in the third week of the month. An email is also sent. If you like to receive that email please complete this form to be added.

COUNSELLING CAN BE A LONELY PROFESSION
But it doesn’t have to be!
The number one benefit I hear from counsellors who attend my groups – is connection with others.
Group supervision is a great way to connect, network and develop professional relationships with other counsellors while learning from the collective group of experience.
I offer group supervison every month for 2 hours per group. It is a cost effective way to maintain your ACA requirements and connect with others. The group has varied levels of experience and a wide variety of topics – but does focus more generally on counsellors in private practice.
Starting a private practice for the first time is a huge learning experience. Penny has been an amazing supervisor who has helped me to focus my intention and guided me through each step of the process. Penny is a knowledgable and supportive supervisor, not only helping me with my business but improving my skills as a counsellor as well.
Penny has been my supervisor for over a year now. I have found the one-on-one and group supervision to be a safe and non-judgemental space. Her supervision has helped me to find peers to connect with, provided information on dealing with real struggles within the occupational field and helped build my confidence through altruism. Penny is a supervisor who is friendly, authentic, and her various experiences within the occupation makes her examples valuable and diverse.
From my first individual supervision session with Penny I felt comfortable sharing my ups and downs of my new private practice. Penny always provides a safe space to share, she is warm, fun,caring and extremely knowledgeable about all things in the counselling space.I have also attended her group sessions which I highly recommend. I’ve attended a few other group sessions but Penny’s group is the best run group session, where everyone feels included and are able to contribute. Having Penny’s support and encouragement I’m able to feel more confident in my skills as a counsellor.
