Supervision details
My aspiration as a Supervisor is to offer supervisees a non-judgmental and collaborative working relationship which seeks to support and supplement your counselling practice. My core training at the University of Chester focussed on the Person Centred approach. Since qualifying as a counsellor my subsequent studies and professional development in other modalities such as CBT mean that I would now consider myself to be an integrative practitioner. As well as working in private practice I have experience of working in a multi-agency setting as a Probation Alcohol Counsellor, and have also managed the delivery of a counselling service at a local Mind association. These roles have given me a broad experience in a variety of settings. As a consequence I have gained an understanding of what it is like to work in environments where, potentially, conflicting demands and pressures are involved. I work from home in the TF2 area of Telford, where I can offer evening appointments if required. I also have access to an office in Shrewsbury on Saturday mornings. My fees for counselling supervision for qualified therapists are £40/hour, and I offer concessionary rates for student and newly qualified counsellors. I also offer a free initial consultation lasting up to an hour to discuss with you what you would want from a supervisory relationship, and how we might work together.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
