Supervision details
Supervision with me is about exploring your client work, providing a space for ethical decision making as well as supporting your practice, looking at your development and meeting your professional needs.
The foundation of my supervision practice is simple – I’m going to offer you space to honour you, your clients and your work. The work we do as practitioners is hard, and supervision is a place to explore that. Beyond that of course is a lot more, I will offer a space which is..
• Collaborative
• Reflective
• Expressive
• Restorative
• Inquisitive
I’m an experienced person centred therapist but welcome working with others from different therapeutic perspectives and modalities, as well as those outside the counselling profession.
The experience that I bring with me is varied – including private practice, third sector and charity work. I’ve also many years of experience of being self employed, both in private work and in my previous career.
In particular I’ve worked with clients outside for a number of years, offering outdoor therapy / ecotherapy / walk and talk and am passionate about this area of practice. Drop me a message if you'd like to know about the training and CPD workshops I run on outdoor counselling and nature connection within a counselling relationship.
I've also a growing interest in supporting counsellors working with eco-anxiety, climate grief as they support clients - and themselves - through the ecological crisis we face.
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.
