Supervision details
As a child and adolescent Psychotherapist and an adult Counsellor, I offer supervision to both trainees and experienced Therapists working with all age groups. My aim as a Supervisor is to enhance the service you offer to your clients. To enable this I take responsibility;- to support you (as a Supervisee) to adhere to the highest ethical guidelines, to support you in understanding and using the latest evidence based treatments, to give you encouraging feedback relative to your developmental stage, to encourage your self awareness, self reflection and management of personal wellbeing. I believe in working with authentic understanding, open contact and a sense of equality and value rather than taking an authoritarian approach. I work experientially with various models from different schools of Psychotherapy. I feel the variation enables me to offer a flexible approach unique to your needs as a Supervisee. My integrative approach enables me to support you as an individual in developing your own unique way of working - no single person is the same or experiences the same so why should the approach to Supervision be the same?! My work at the Northern Guild for Counselling and Psychotherapy training has given me insight into the requirements of a therapist in training. I am able to offer support with assignments, assessments and exams. My practice is guided by the professional standards and ethical procedures of the UK Council for Psychotherapy and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. To understand more about the way I practice please take a look at my website; mandydadswell.com
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
