Sarah Briggs is a Director of The Grove Practice, where she has held a management role in the therapy service for over 12 years. She is a supervisor accredited by BACP and also by COSRT. She brings to her supervision practice the engaging and relational approach deployed with her clients. As an accredited psychotherapist, psychosexual & relationship therapist, drug & alcohol counsellor, executive coach, Sarah has a wealth of experience working with adult clients, either as individuals or couples.
Sarah supervises therapists through each stage of their professional development: as trainees, then qualified therapists, plus supporting supervisees towards accreditation or UKCP registration. This aspect involves writing supervision reports at key stages in that career progression. She also supervises supervisors in training or after qualifying. Her clinical management role for the therapy team at The Grove also involves the practical application of ethical principles including boundaries, contracting, confidentiality, balancing the client’s autonomy with upholding the role of the therapist, all within the commercial context of The Grove.
Her tutor and supervision experience also encompasses therapeutic work partnered with horses for human clients – equine-facilitated therapy. She offers equine-facilitated programmes in Wiltshire, for therapy clients and also for corporate groups.
Sarah is the core tutor for the Autumn intake of The Grove’s supervision course.
