Alison Cole
Occupational Psychology
and Coaching Supervisor
Improving practice through supervision
Your opportunity to gain insight, focus and develop
“Alison created an environment of safety, and throughout the session, I was comfortable to speak openly and with candour, and whilst Alison challenged, which I would expect, it was done with expertise, empathy, and purpose.”
Sean Riley CPsychol AFBPsS. Chartered Psychologist (Occupational)
As an experienced practitioner and Registered Practice Supervisor (RAPPs), you benefit from my knowledge, training in supervision and pragmatic understanding. This comes from working in the field of occupational psychology and coaching for more than two decades.
Working with me offers you a formal process of professional support and a confidential space in which we can explore your practice and develop your confidence and creativity.
Through interactive reflective practice, using a range of supervisory methods and approaches, I will help you bring value to your stakeholders and those connected with your work and help you explore, and evaluate your practice and develop.
“Alison’s ability to create a psychologically safe environment for me to explore elements of my coaching practice was unparalleled”
