Supervision details
I offer online supervision for psychotherapists and art therapists, as well consultation for non-clinical practitioners, such as outdoor and mental health professionals.
My intention is to create a supervisory environment that feels safe-enough to facilitate thinking and reflection. The focus of sessions will be whatever the practitioner defines as most useful for them in that moment. Through a collaborative approach, I hope to establish a working relationship that allows the practitioner to feel able to bring the parts of their practice that may feel more vulnerable or challenging, and thus facilitate growth and development. My approach is broadly psychodynamic, whilst holding in mind somatic interventions and trauma-informed practice. I supervise both indoor and outdoor work.
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
