"I started supervision with Russell Wharton after finishing the basic training 4 years ago. I work primarily with children and adolescents and asked for a supervisor with experience in that area. Although I have not yet participated in the EMDR child training because of the Covid situation, having Russell as a supervisor has filled in this gap and more, to the extent that I have reached consultants training and they really appreciated the level I reached thanks to Russell's supervision. I highly recommend Russell's as an EMDR supervisor, he has a very calm and responsible manner which facilitates the supervision process a lot. He is also very experienced using EMDR with different populations and conditions."

"Russell has been my EMDR supervisor for many years. He has supported me since my training in EMDR, and in becoming accredited and reaccredited. Russell is very knowledgeable and always has ideas and suggestions if feeling stuck or struggling with cases. Russel is a very experienced clinician and is more than happy to share his wisdom and offers a safe and flexible supervision space which I really value."

“I’ve been seeing Russell for supervision for 5 years now and he’s a skilled and knowledgeable clinician. Calm and approachable. When setting up private practice Russell was really helpful and encouraging and this is still the case now. I recommend him as a supervisor and as a therapist.’

"I have had supervision with Russell for many years now.  He has supported me in my development as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and helped me with the transition from NHS to private practice. I very much recommend Russell as a supervisor."

- Will Mertens, RMHN and CBT Therapist

"Russell has been providing me with EMDR supervision for 4 years and has been with me every set of the way supporting my growing confidence using EMDR alongside Art Psychotherapy with children. I look forward to these supervisions and rely on the succinct and clear advice and guidance Russell gives, demystifying the EMDR process in his very down to earth way. I have also really appreciated being able to occasionally email Russell between sessions to check something out which he has made himself available for and has been containing. Russell is very knowledgeable and has a wealth of experience in using EMDR which makes me feel in safe hands."
