Monthly Clinical Supervision Group
Alex Carling is a psychotherapist and clinical supervisor in private practice.
In a world with higher demand and fewer resources, Alex facilitates a monthly, four-hour group session. This group is designed for participants to combine and collaborate, developing the skills, knowledge, and personal capacity to be in a strong relationship with their clients.
Since starting her private practice in 2012, Alex has followed the lead of her clients and, in doing so, has developed skills relevant to their needs. She shares these skills within the group, which is open to all practitioners, not just those trained in Transactional Analysis (TA). While her work is underpinned by her initial training in TA Psychotherapy (Level 7), she encourages the exploration of the theories participants already use to understand their clients' challenges, building from there.
Alex is a certified Brainspotting practitioner who believes in a client’s intuitive capacity for healing. She supports group members in developing a sense of curiosity about this process and learning how to understand what their client's system is communicating. She is also a certified Adoption Therapist and provides supervision in this area.
Drawing from her Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy Level 1 training, her adoption certificate, and 15 years of experience working with women and children who have experienced domestic abuse, Alex uses an attachment-focused approach. She works to support the neurobiological needs of her clients, often incorporating mindfulness into her practice. Mindfulness is also a key component of the group sessions, used both in client work and as a way for the group to connect and ground themselves.
With a high proportion of neurodivergent clients, Alex has developed a dedicated interest in this area and completed a Specialist Diploma in Neurodiversity Informed Practice in June 2025. Her professional development also includes a Diploma in Supervision from The Link Centre and a Level 3 Education and Training Certificate, which enhances her ability to educate and communicate in an inclusive and dynamic way.

What other therapists/counsellors have said about past groups:
"...it's like a Kaleidoscope" - one therapist said this with reference to the experience of the diverse perspectives, minds and bodies that contributed to her practise.
"it's surprised me how safe I felt". When we started our group, we took some time to honour the newness and uncertainty, our past experiences of learning and of groups, so we all knew what was needed from us, for each group member. All members said they felt safe to be vulnerable in the group and I believe it was thanks to this, that the group was so effective.
"Your supervision has been beneficial for both my clients and my self" - due to the safety experienced, therapists were able to bring their authentic and vulnerable self to supervision, this makes supervision so expansive.
"...neurodivergence, mindfulness and compassion in abundance!" This therapist shared with me what they were sharing with their training group, about our supervision, the bits they found particularly helpful.
