About this event
Have you ever found yourself questioning the separation between therapy and supervision? Do you navigate these roles with clarity, or do you see opportunities to combine these experiences in a meaningful way?
In the evolving landscape of counselling and psychotherapy, Keemar and John are raising the question of whether the strict separation between therapeutic and supervisory roles still serves practitioners and clients well. This interactive workshop invites you to critique the current division between therapy and clinical supervision and explore the imperative to combine these two experiences within a single professional relationship. We will examine how supervision should also incorporate the exploration and understanding of the supervisee’s personality and personal processes—an area often exclusively reserved for therapy. This exploration is crucial to ensuring that supervision is truly holistic, while also maintaining the availability of therapy as a separate but complementary resource. We will consider both the opportunities and challenges that arise from integrating these roles.
This workshop will provide an opportunity to:
- Critique the traditional separation between therapy and supervision.
- Explore the interplay between therapeutic practice and supervisory responsibilities.
- Consider how professional boundaries can be maintained when roles overlap.
- Discuss ethical considerations when therapy and supervision converge.
Through open dialogue and small group work, we’ll delve into how embracing the fusion of therapy and supervision can enhance your practice while safeguarding ethical standards.

Keemar Keemar
I have 30 years experience as a psychotherapist in private practise, 20 years working as a tutor and Director of a Psychotherapy Training Institute, 11 years as a senior counsellor for NHS staff and 8 years in University Student Counselling.
I often work with people who find therapy daunting or even think it could be impossible. Often in responsible roles, maybe creating change in their environment, yet unable to effect satisfying or profound changes in themselves and their own lives.
My job is to see what blocks and inhibits you. The process of us being together offers opportunity for new ways to think and live.
I offer Counselling & Psychotherapy both long and short term and I work face to face in Sheffield and online for people across the UK.
For 20 years I have been providing Supervision & Reflective Practise for other professionals including counsellors and psychotherapist, NHS staff, School Leaders, Business and Executive Coaches and anyone wanting to explore, expand and take care of themselves personally and professionally.
