Supervision details
I am a BACP Senior Accredited therapist and Level 7 Person-centred supervisor. I draw on Hawkins & Shohet's 7 Eyed model and Page & Wosket's Cyclical model. My style of supervision is embedded in a relational approach which respects the expertise and individuality of the supervisee and supports them to deepen their congruence with their clients. I value working with both counsellors and therapists, as well as other members of the helping professions, such as medical practitioners, teachers, and social workers.
As a therapist I have experience of both long term and time-limited sessions, and have worked with a wide range of life stages. I am trauma-informed and qualified in therapeutic approaches with children, young people and adults. As I work 1-1 with my own clients, I don't offer supervision for couples work.
I work in-person from a comfortable garden office on the outskirts of Worcester, with parking and wheelchair access. Online sessions are also available. I offer a free 30 minute initial meeting as I understand that it can be helpful to meet with several potential supervisors to get a sense of what feels right for you.
Sessions are available in 45mins, 60mins, or 90mins and are charged (pro rata) at your hourly rate or a minimum of £60/hr.
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.
