Supervision details

I offer a model of holistic supervision that is not modality based.  In addition and because I believe that accreditation is a useful next step in the development of the experienced practitioner, I can offer support and mentoring to a supervisee if they wish to pursue accreditation.  I completed the supervision course at the Northern Guild for Psychotherapy in 1999 and have worked with nurses, counsellors, psychotherapists and educationalists from a variety of backgrounds.  I have had personal experience of a wide variety of supervision including person centred, transactional analysis, psychodynamic and spiritual accompaniment.  I charge £50 per 50 minute session for supervision as well as therapy because I believe you are buying my total skills irrespective of the contract.  I am happy to discuss your requirements over the phone.  You can read more about me on the therapist section of this website and on my website.                    

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.

Key details

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

Fully accessible premises with disabled facilities.
