Supervision details
I am a professionally trained Supervisor working in the Brighton and wider Sussex areas. I supervise trainees and fully trained therapists and counsellors and work with those trained in a psychodynamic and/or an integrative approach. I work with counsellors based in the voluntary sector, charities, student counselling services and in private practice. I offer Supervision for organisations/individuals in need of Clinical Supervision. I have long term experience of the charitable sector in positions of leadership and management. I offer support for work related stress and other workplace related issues and ongoing support and supervision for staff across all organisational levels, including managers, chief executives, as well as self-employed people. My approach to Supervision is to offer a dual purpose - to provide a safe and containing space and to be able to challenge counsellors/practitioners to create an opportunity for reflection and understanding. Supervision should be a creative and mutative space for Supervisor and Supervisee. I am a psychologist by training with a background in mental health. I have worked in the voluntary sector myself for over twenty years for organisations that work with individuals experiencing a range of issues including specifically mental health. I have worked as a therapist for over 15 years in a school, University counselling service and private setting. Please do contact me if you would like to discuss your Supervision requirements.
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.
