Supervision details
COVID-19 update - I am currently taking on new supervisees on-line as this is the safest way to work at the moment. I am planning to open my practice again for face to face sessions from 1/9/20. Supervision is both a professional and ethical necessity and an invaluable part of our work as counsellors and therapists. My aim for my supervisees is to create a safe and supportive environment for both professional and personal disclosure and release in regard to all aspects of clinical practice in order to work as effectively, safely and ethically as possible. Within the strong bond of mutual trust and respect of the supervisory relationship, I hope to facilitate my supervisees to take an active role in sessions, to talk about any issues arising from their practice and to express emotions freely. Sessions aim to provide space for thinking, reflection, gaining of insight and creativity. I hope to empower my supervisees by acknowledging and validating their worth, values and strengths by sharing my knowledge and experience. I am able to draw on my experience of working in various settings over the last 15 years as a counsellor and therapist. My supervision style reflects my integrative way of working and I therefore I use a variety of methods during supervision sessions which means that they can be tailored to suit the individual needs of my supervisees. I will encourage you to be open to genuine feedback and to be open to challenge from time to time. I hope to offer you stimulation and empowerment so that you can get the most out of this valuable resource for both your clients and yourself.
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).
