Thinking in Conversation: What Are You Thinking?

In therapy and supervision, our inner thinking is always in the room — sometimes helpful, sometimes getting in the way. In this session, we’ll slow down together and explore how our private thoughts shape the conversation, the relationship, and the work.

We’ll consider:

• What kinds of thinking show up while we’re with clients and supervisees
• When thinking serves the process, and when it becomes interference
• How expectations, roles, and culture nudge our attention and choices
• Practical ways to notice, name, and work with our thinking in real time

What to expect:

• A live, unscripted conversation with space to reflect and contribute
• Concrete takeaways you can try in your next session
• A supportive community of colleagues thinking together

Who it’s for:

• Counsellors, psychotherapists, supervisors, coaches, and trainees who want to bring more awareness and ease to their in‑the‑moment thinking

Keemar Keemar

I have 30 years experience as a psychotherapist in private practise, 20 years working as a tutor and Director of a Psychotherapy Training Institute, 11 years as a senior counsellor for NHS staff and 8 years in University Student Counselling.

I often work with people who find therapy daunting or even think it could be impossible. Often in responsible roles, maybe creating change in their environment, yet unable to effect satisfying or profound changes in themselves and their own lives.

My job is to see what blocks and inhibits you. The process of us being together offers opportunity for new ways to think and live.

I offer Counselling & Psychotherapy both long and short term and I work face to face in Sheffield and online for people across the UK.

For 20 years I have been providing Supervision & Reflective Practise for other professionals including counsellors and psychotherapist, NHS staff, School Leaders, Business and Executive Coaches and anyone wanting to explore, expand and take care of themselves personally and professionally.
