Cultural supervision for mental health practitioners across Australia
Are you seeking to deepen your cultural competency and provide safer, more inclusive care?
Our 1:1 cultural supervision sessions offer a supportive, reflective space for mental health practitioners to explore cultural identity, cross-cultural dynamics, and culturally responsive practice.
We're here to help you feel confident and resourced in supporting the Asian community.

As the leading voice in Asian mental health in Australia, we've provided tailored support to organisations such as headspace, Neami, the Australasian Society of Genetic Counsellors.
Culture is nuanced, innate and often challenging to pinpoint. Work individually with Asami Koike (RMT) in cultural supervision to navigate cultural complexities with confidence.
Why "cultural" supervision?
Cultural supervision is a specialised form of supervision that focuses on:
Cultural humility
Reflecting deeply on your own cultural identity, assumptions and biases and how they intersect with your work.
Case consultation
Gain insights, support and guidance for individual cases where you may feel stuck or unsure of how to proceed.
Active skill development
Connecting to emerging literature to navigate complex cultural dynamics with confidence.
This is a space for open, honest conversations.
Asami Koike is the founder and director of Shapes and Sounds with extensive experience working in acute, trauma and community based settings.
A registered music therapist by training, Asami brings a warm, approachable, and open style to supervision, creating a space for honest, judgment-free conversations.
She supports mental health practitioners from all disciplines (and all cultural identities) who work with, or are interested in working with, Asian communities.
