Supervision details
Working with trauma has its challenges and touches many parts of us… If you are a therapist working with people be it on a physical, emotional or mental level supervision is important. At the heart of our work is the self that we bring to the relationship. What I will support you in is being more fully who you are, supporting your practice from experience and to foster in you a deepening curiosity of your own process as you come to your case load. How to create safety and how to step out of the client’s systems that are keepingthem stuck… Over the years I’ve supervised a wide spectrum of therapist’s from in training students to very experienced therapists and supervisors… some being body workers others just being solely psychotherapists; the common vein being trauma work. By offering conditions of deep acceptance of the full circle of who we are we can come to realize the support we need to unfold into our work and more widely into our life… self care!
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.
