Supervision details
Clinical supervision is a formal process of professional support and learning which enables individual practitioners to develop knowledge and competence, assume responsibility for their own practice. As an ethical practitioner the BACP states “all counsellors, psychotherapists, trainers and supervisors are required to have regular and on-going formal supervision/consultative support for their work in accordance with professional requirements.
I offer Clinical Supervision in a safe warm environment offering my supervisees space to reflect on their practice. Creating a learning environment built on mutuality and effective contracting will allow a climate that is both explicit and facilitative. It also addresses the developmental needs of the supervisee through effective challenge. Page and Wosket talk about “Learning Goals” in which a supervisee identifies “Learning Goals” in which further training may be needed. It has been stated that the supervisory relationship is as central to effective supervision as the therapy relationship is to effective therapeutic outcomes Bernard, J. M. Goodyear, R. K. (1998). I also feel that when supervisees feel a strong working alliance through clear contracting and less vagueness a strong working alliance is maintained.

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.
