Supervision details
Are you looking for a collaborative, culturally responsive supervisor to elevate your practice?
Excellent supervision empowers you to refine your clinical skills, prevent burnout, and gain profound client insights. My relational supervision practice is driven by a deep passion for diversity, difference, and intersectionality.
I provide a secure, non-judgmental space where you can bring your whole self to reflection. Together, we will safely explore how overlapping identities, power dynamics, and lived experiences influence your therapeutic relationships.
Whether you are a trainee navigating accreditation or an experienced qualified therapist deepening your practice, I am here to support you, your clinical workload and champion your professional growth.
Let’s see if we are a good fit. Please contact me today on 07976820788 to schedule your free, 20-minute introductory telephone consultation or email bena@armitages.org
I am a fully qualified Transactional Analysis psychotherapist (CTA-P), graduated at masters level, and hold Diploma in Clinical Supervision. I am accredited and a registered member of the UKCP and BACP, offering supervision to qualified and trainee counsellors, psychotherapists, and employees seeking to enhance their professional development.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. 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.
UKATA (formally the Institute of Transactional Analysis) is the national UK Transactional Analysis organisation representing all fields of TA theory and practice. TA can be used as an effective tool in a wide range of contexts such as: personal development, management, coaching, counselling, psychotherapy, teaching, education, parenting and more.
