If you are …

then Koira Psychology may be a good fit for you

Mark is a fully qualified and AHPRA accredited board approved supervisor, who can provide supervision to Clinical Psychology Registrar Program and 5+1 program psychology interns.

  • Telehealth (video) Supervision sessions

    Please note-5+1 Interns: At this time I only can provide Secondary Supervision.

My approach to supervision

1)Develop skills that apply across all types of therapy

My approach to supervision is to help you develop the therapy skills that all psychologists require, no matter your therapeutic approach.

2) Provide supervision that is affordable and supportive

Completing your training can be a time of financial stress and high emotions. My goal is to provide psychological supervision of the highest standard, that is also affordable and supportive.

Key areas I frequently address in a Secondary Supervision Session

  • Transference and counter-transference

  • Empathy and unconditional regard

  • Case formulation

  • Process vs Content

  • The ‘here and now’/ Being present

  • Connection and ‘stepping back’

  • Boundaries and Self-care

  • Ethics in practice

  • Accepting the limitations of therapy

  • Building will in clients

  • Regulating anxiety in clients

  • Addressing grief, loss, and trauma

    and more ………..

“When we get frustrated with a client’s defenses, we are likely to blame the client for being resistant rather than taking responsibility for helping them find the safety they lack”
