Supervision details
I have completed the Diploma in Supervision with the Sherwood Institute in July 2021.
Purpose of Supervision
I believe that supervision needs to take place in a safe and supportive environment where all parties can explore the counselling/psychotherapy process between the counsellor/psychotherapist and the client in an open and honest way.
The aim is to assess the needs of the client and explore ways of working that would be of most benefit to them. It is a place where the supervisee can develop themselves as a therapist and get support.
It is designed to ensure professional standards are being met and that the supervisee is working within the Ethical Guidelines for Good Practise in Counselling and Psychotherapy.
I endeavour to create an environment of openness, honesty, support and respect, where power is shared.
I will always attempt to work from an I’m Ok, You’re Ok place and challenge from this place.
It is the therapist's responsibility to ensure they book in for and receive the required amount of supervision to meet the needs of their course (if in training), or organisation and the requirements of BACP/UKCP/NCS and/or their Diploma /BSc./MSc. Course
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.
