Supervision details
I have completed training as a Supervisor with CSTD Bath which has been officially validated by the HIPC section of UKCP as being a 'Recognised Supervision Training' since 2016 and meets all requirements for this recognition. As a supervisor I offer a warm, approachable, empathic and non-judging manner, holding gentle authority in the supervisory role. I provide a safe space for the supervisee to talk about their experience as a practitioner and their concerns for and work with their clients. The development of a good working alliance is key to good supervision and I aim to work with respect, congruence, and non-judgement in the relationship I develop with my supervisees. My interest in the supervision process extends not only to the relationship between client and therapist but to the ongoing professional and individual development of the supervisee and the supervisor as they grow in reflective practice. One of the main supervision models I use as a CSTD Supervisor Trainee is the Seven-Eyed supervision Model which was developed by Peter Hawkins, one of the founding members of CSTD Bath. I am happy to work with both individual and couple work in supervision. If you are interested in finding out more about working in supervision with me please contact me via email or telephone.
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.
