Supervision details
A comfortable and collaborative relationship is a priority for your supervisory experience with me. To be able to learn, grow and develop your career and skills, is the privilege of being a supervisor and this is part of the work along with clinical content I offer my supervises’s.
Your self-care is important and there will always be a space for you as well as your client work.
If you are a student, newly qualified or have extensive knowledge I am respectful and adaptable to your therapeutic skills. I draw on 15 years of experience using a variety of models and approaches. Complex presentations, personality disorders and managing psychological risk is part of how I can support you in your work.
I have worked in a large multi-disciplinary organisation and have the experience and understanding required to navigate the supervisory pathway when multiple relationships exist between the organisation, client and supervisee.
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.
