Supervision that leaves you lighter.
Online clinical supervision with Barbara Beirao, Accredited Social Worker. Warm, practical and reflective, for people doing heavy work.
Who I supervise
If your work involves sitting with other people’s pain, you deserve a space to think, debrief and grow.

- Family violence practitioners
- Youth workers
- Counsellors and mental health workers
- Social work students on placement

Notice the signs early and build a pace you can sustain.

Hi, I’m Barbara
I’m an Accredited Social Worker with many years in the field, including family violence and mental health, and I’m highly trained and experienced working with neurodivergent people. I’ve trained in supervision, supervised social work students on placement, and currently supervise in the youth sector.
I believe supervision should feel supportive, not like a performance review. Expect warmth, honesty, a bit of humour, and practical ideas you can use the next day.
