Supervision details
I have 6 years experience of supervising counsellors in training in the local generic counselling centre. I create trainee counsellors reports for their college requirements. I also have experience of creating agency reports for counselling supervisees, as I am a senior worker in a drugs and alcohol support service for young people.
I have 18 years (12 years paid work and 6 years voluntary) experience both in adults and young people substance use support service's, where I line manage staff and offer monthly supervisions.
I have also started working with a small case load of young people age 13 + working for Mindler Sandbox, supporting NHS and Vitality clients under a clinical setting. As part of my ongoing continual professional development.
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.
