Supervision

Sophia Parks (she/her)

"My core beliefs towards my supervisees translate into believing that they have a propensity to move towards growth and desire knowledge, and that consciously or unconsciously they want to be seen and understood as competent, caring, and effective therapists by their supervisor."

~ Sophia

Areas of Practice

My branch of psychology is clinical/counselling. My professional activities are interventions (counselling), general assessment, consultation, and supervision. My current clients are adults (including the elderly); However, I have previously counselled adolescents, couples, families, and groups. As your supervisor I would be able to supervise your counselling work with a diversity of adults and senior citizens and if you endeavor to supervise graduate students, I am qualified and competent to be able to teach you how to be a clinical supervisor.

Model of Supervision

I integrate many styles of therapy into my counselling practice. My style of therapy is guided by the following theories/training: Hakomi (mindful-somatic psychotherapy), Feminist Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Humanistic Psychology. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Prolonged Exposure therapy, and Exposure and Response Prevention. The way I do therapy and supervision is shaped by my humanistic core beliefs; namely, we [humans] desire to be known, seen, heard, understood, accepted unconditionally, and loved. Humans are resilient, survivors, and creative.
