Our Services

Friendly Conversation

For individuals

Social Work for You offers both social work supervision and coaching to support professional growth and enhance practice.

​

Coaching is goal-oriented and future-focused, helping workers develop specific skills, tackle challenges and achieve career goals. It emphasizes leadership development, personal growth, and solution-focused strategies.

​

Supervision provides guidance on case management, ethical practice, skill development and emotional support. It helps ensure quality service delivery and accountability, with a focus on reflective practice and professional growth. Any person working in direct support roles will benefit from this, yon don't need to be a social worker. â€‹

​

Both services reduce burnout, boost job satisfaction, and improve client outcomes. I can provide either supervision or coaching tailored to your needs, empowering you to thrive in your practice.

Why Supervision for School Wellbeing Staff Matters

Supervision isn’t just a check-in—it’s a vital support system that helps school-based wellbeing staff navigate the complex and often challenging work they do. Regular, high-quality supervision ensures staff have the guidance, tools and confidence to provide the best possible support to students and families. It also plays a crucial role in preventing burnout, strengthening professional skills and promoting staff wellbeing.

​

At Social Work For You, we believe every school wellbeing staff member should have access to regular, workplace-funded supervision—because when staff are supported, students thrive.

​

If you’re making the case for supervision in your school, check out our Supervision Matters page for key talking points to help advocate for this essential support.
