Supervision details
I can work face to face from my counselling room in Colchester, on online via Zoom.
I worked for 10 years in the bereavement service of St Helena Hospice in Colchester where I supported student counsellors on placement with individual supervision and also facilitated group supervision for peers.
In my private practice I work with students and newly qualified counsellors as well as more experienced individuals.
I provide a thoughtful and curious space where we can look at all aspects of professional practice together.
I draw on my integrative foundations to explore fully your experience of being with the client. I am interested in your unconscious process and reactions, your somatic responses and any challenges you might encounter. I believe we need to look at our clients in their entire context, so considerations of intersectional identity are woven as a thread throughout the work.
I also appreciate that your own lived experience is key and that other factors outside the therapeutic relationship may affect the work.
Fees are from £60 per hour for individuals. I am not currently running any groups.
I offer a free initial discussion by Zoom or telephone (up to 30 minutes), where we can look together at your requirements for supervision.
Please feel free to contact me for further details about the service I provide.
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.
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.
