Supervision details
I use the cyclical model of supervision. Page and Wosket (2015 p.19) state the cyclical model allows;
“enablement of the fullest therapeutic use to made, of the counselling or psychotherapy. It also enables the supervisee to foster their capacity to practice effectively by developing skills and resources together with their ability to reflect upon and conceptualise the therapeutic process”.
The model is simple and effective and allows us to set clear goals whilst adhering to BACP ethical framework.
I am a warm and caring person and aim to ensure I work ethically and non-judgmentally with all my clients. I can offer a honest and congruent space within which you can be assured you will feel safe in the knowledge that the work is confidential and that it is carried out within professional boundaries.
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.
