I’m passionate about helping you to thrive in your pastoral role.

Meet Nev

I have had over 30 years of pastoral experience across 4 different churches - from a large church plant, to revitalising a small inner-city church, as well as serving a suburban church with a community and social justice focus.

While I loved working in pastoral ministry, I became passionate about the idea of helping other pastoral leaders to reflect on their ministry practice and find support in challenging pastoral situations. I believe that a supportive, professional relationship outside of a person’s ministry context, is essential for self-care, enhancing role clarity and experiencing transformation through active reflection on their ministry practice.

I currently provide Professional Supervision to pastoral leaders across all Christian denominations. I also have particular interest and expertise in providing supervision to pastors serving in culturally and linguistically diverse churches. My practice includes working as a Consultant Practitioner for the University of Divinity and Whitley College.

In additional to my years of ministry experience, I have supervised ordination candidates for many years and practiced as a qualified bereavement counsellor.

I am committed to supervision that is focused on active listening, confidentiality, trust and openness.
