Thoughtful, psychologically informed consultation for clinicians, teams and organisations working with complexity.
Through Ferrito Training & Consultancy, I provide clinical consultation, supervision and training for professionals working in demanding clinical and care environments.
My role is to bring an experienced psychological perspective to complex situations, helping clinicians and teams think clearly about formulation, risk, relational dynamics, uncertainty, professional judgement and the wider context in which the work is taking place.
Clinical Consultation for Clinicians & Teams
I provide consultation for clinicians and teams who want space to step back from complex work and think together about what may be happening.
This may include:
- formulation and case conceptualisation
- clinical decision-making
- risk and safeguarding
- relational dynamics
- treatment planning
- professional judgement
- uncertainty around next steps
- the emotional impact of the work
- wider team or organisational factors influencing practice
My role is not to provide a ready-made answer, but to support careful thinking, different perspectives and greater clinical clarity.
The aim is to help clinicians and teams leave with clearer thinking, greater confidence in their clinical judgement and a more considered sense of next steps.
Individual & Group Supervision
Clinical supervision is a substantial part of my work.
I provide individual and group supervision for clinicians working across NHS and independent settings, including EMDR consultation and CBT supervision.
Supervision may include formulation, treatment planning, risk, therapist responses, professional development and the challenges involved in remaining thoughtful and effective in demanding clinical work.
My approach is relational, reflective and clinically grounded, combining support with appropriate challenge.
Training & Professional Development
I provide training and CPD for clinicians, supervisors and teams in areas including trauma, complex presentations, therapist resourcing, relational practice and clinical thinking.
My training is designed to be practical, thoughtful and closely connected to the realities of clinical work.
I aim to create learning spaces that help clinicians not only understand ideas, but apply them with greater confidence and clarity in practice.
Collaborative Clinical Projects
I am also open to collaborative projects where psychological expertise may add value to a developing service, training programme, clinical resource or health-related product.
My contribution in these contexts is primarily clinical and psychological: helping teams consider how psychological ideas translate into safe, meaningful and workable practice.
This may include input into:
- clinical or educational content
- staff training and development
- psychologically informed resources
- new clinical initiatives
- health and digital-health products
- projects where understanding behaviour, relationships or clinical practice is important
I am particularly interested in collaborative work where an organisation already has technical, operational or subject-specific expertise and would benefit from an additional psychological perspective.
Why Work With Me
My consultation work is grounded in almost two decades of experience across NHS, forensic, charitable, academic and independent settings.
A substantial part of my current practice involves supervising clinicians working across NHS and independent services, alongside continued clinical work with complex presentations.
This keeps my work closely connected to the realities of practice, including uncertainty, risk, relational dynamics, emotional demands and the wider systems in which clinicians and teams are working.
The C.A.R.E.S. Model™
I am the founder of the C.A.R.E.S. Model™, Connect, Attune, Resource, Establish Boundaries and Settle.
C.A.R.E.S. grew from my clinical and supervisory work and reflects my interest in what helps clinicians remain present, relationally attuned, appropriately boundaried and clinically clear in demanding work.
The model informs aspects of my supervision, training and consultation, while continuing to develop as a distinct framework in its own right.
Ways of Working
Depending on what is needed, I can offer:
- one-off clinical consultation
- ongoing team consultation
- individual or group supervision
- training and CPD
- project-based clinical consultation
- collaborative advisory input
The format can be tailored to the needs of the clinician, team or organisation.
