Supervision details
I'm not going to tell you I've trained in the 7-eyed model of supervision. Not because I haven't, but because it's likely it won't mean much to you unless you've trained to be a supervisor! And I prefer a more human approach. Because that's what we both are.
As your supervisor, my aim is to be a safe pair of hands for you. Someone who will celebrate the successes in your work, give you time and space to explore stuff and give you help when needed. I will roll my sleeves up and get stuck in with you and whatever you're bringing.
You might want to know I've been a therapist since 2011, so I've got a fair bit of experience under my belt. But even with that, I'm still always learning. It never stops does it? There always more. And as much as I help clients and supervisees, I learn loads from them too.
My own supervision experiences and client work have lead me to becoming a supervisor. And I love the work. I still love being a therapist but there's something special about being alongside colleagues in their work too.
Last but not least, my core training is in Transactional Analysis but I've done lots of other CPD/training since then. See the qualifications part on my therapist profile.
Get in touch if you'd like an intro chat, I'd love to hear from you. Text or email is best.
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.
