Supervision details
I am a qualified clinical supervisor who offers individual and group sessions.
I was trained as an integrative counsellor, and in my counselling practice, my work is informed by the belief that the therapeutic relationship between the client and therapist and in turn the relationship between supervisor and the supervisee, is the foundation for change and growth. With this in mind, I work to create a secure and supportive relationship for my supervisees to identify, understand and reflect on their resources and vulnerabilities. This can then form a platform for growth and positive changes in their therapeutic work.
My philosophy embraces a holistic approach to supervision, drawing upon multiple theoretical frameworks and models. These include the Hawkins and Shohet Seven-Eyed Model, the Inskipp and Proctor supervision alliance framework and the Support-Challenge approach for teaching and learning and is also guided by the BACP Ethical Framework.
Supervision, for me, is not just about reflection, but also about mutual learning and is an opportunity for us to come together as two professionals, united by a common goal: the well-being of the client. However, your personal growth, professional development, and the support you receive in your practice are just as important, and I aim to hold space for both.
I strive to create a space where you feel safe to explore, but also where I can gently challenge you to consider new perspectives and expand your practice. With that in mind, supervision is a two-way relationship, and I actively encourage feedback.
My experience to date is to offer supervision to those in Private Practice and Healthcare Professionals within the NHS and Charity sector. If you are looking for a Supervisor I'm happy to arrange an initial conversation to discuss how we might work together.
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.
