Supervision details
I love my supervision and the support I get are invaluable. I love to supervise counselling professionals or trainees. I offer individual and group supervision or both as a package for a competitive price. The supervision for professionals covers support, care, fun, advice and is sometimes challenging, informative and educational. It should offer you a place where to get advice and guidance you might need to do the best for your clients. Working with images, movement, meditation, art media’s or role play will help to regulate the nervous system by vicarious trauma, overwhelm by stress and detecting hidden themes and transference.
I studied counselling from 2005 in the UK and worked since 2007 with clients in England. Before 2005 I worked therapeutically for more then 20 years in The Netherlands as a Gestalt and Embodiment therapist, as well as working as an expressive arts teacher in dance and drama. Now I am an integrative counsellor and supervisor based on the person-centred model I am striving to be congruent, unconditional and empathic. Supervision needs to hold you safe when you doubt, offering solutions when in need, to challenge your case work so you know how to be the best for your client, and offering learning in theory and practice to find new ways and to develop further skills. For me supervision does not mean only working or talking. In order to find new ways to work with clients, we often need to engage the creative and non-analytical side of our brain. It has been proven to be very effective in the supervisiory process and enlightens hidden aspects of yourself, your counselling work and the therapeutic relationship with your clients. Therefore I offer to incorporate art medias, embodied therapy, mindfulness and gestalt methods into my supervision work. I offer supervision in Chester and Oswestry or online with video counselling. You are welcome to have a short free introductory meeting to find out if we can and like to work together. I have been working in private practice and work as a supervisor for 3 Charities in group supervision and individual online and f2f after completing my supervisory training L3 July 2012 accredited by Aventis and L 6 training for advanced supervision in online and phone counselling in 2024.
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.
