Supervision details
I offer a calm, supportive and reflective space for counsellors to think deeply about their work, their clients and themselves as practitioners. I believe supervision should feel safe enough to be honest, thoughtful enough to be meaningful, and robust enough to support ethical and effective professional practice.
My approach to supervision is relational, person-centred and pluralistic, drawing on my background in counselling adults and young people across a variety of settings, including schools, charitable organisations and private practice. I hold a CPCAB Level 6 Certificate in Counselling Supervision, which supports my commitment to offering supervision that is ethical, reflective, collaborative and grounded in sound professional practice.
My work is informed by evidence-based approaches to supervision and by a commitment to anti-oppressive practice. I pay attention to the ways that power, identity, culture, privilege, discrimination and systemic inequality may be present in the therapy room and within the supervisory relationship. I aim to offer a space where difference can be explored with openness, care and accountability.
I welcome trainee counsellors and qualified practitioners alike, valuing the different perspectives, learning edges and depth of experience each person brings. Supervisees are invited to bring the whole of their practice — the rewarding moments, the stuck places, the doubts, the ethical dilemmas and the emotional impact of the work. Together, we can reflect, make sense of complexity, and support your growth as a confident, compassionate and accountable practitioner.
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).
