Supervision details
Supervision is an important part of the journey in your counselling and psychotherapy career. It helps to keep yourself and your clients safe when working through difficult issues or supports you through other aspects of being a counsellor, whether this is working in private practice or in an organisational setting.
I have been a qualified integrative counsellor & psychotherapist for over 11 years working from my own Private Practice in Somerset working with adults, children and young people, where I offer a wide range of therapies.
With continued professional development and my own supervision I have specialised in a number of areas and some of these include working with PTSD, CPTSD, Personality Disorders, Sexual Abuse, Trauma, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, ME and more.
My fees for Supervision via ZOOM or Face to Face are £70 for an hour and half and I offer a reduced rate of £35 for a 1 hour session for trainee counsellors based on the BACP fortnightly guidance for students. Usual time is 45 mins for fortnightly students, I however offer a full hour.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
