Supervision details
My wish is that supervisees feel fully supported in their work with clients. They need to feel able to bring everything to supervision, even if it might seem challenging. I value us having a professional relationship where we can gain understanding which allows you to develop through the work. Supervision of supervisors is offered on a 1-2-1 basis or as a group depending upon what is required by you. Supervision is about you. During your client work there will often be things about yourself that arise. Supervision will allow you to work through these and be able to understand them and so allow you to use this understanding as part of your work. We can use a solution focussed supervision model, this allows us to really understand what works for you. Together we discuss positive outcomes and look at how you have worked towards them. Sometimes we might work with an integrative approach, Lewin-Kolb experiential learning circle; Experience - Reflection/ Observation - Develop a strategy - Active experimentation. I work from home in a garden room on the bank of the river Thames. Everyones circumstances are different so charges depend on individuals circumstances.
British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited qualifications and training - SDS Accreditation in Clinical Supervision Level 3 (Advanced) with Assessed Academic and Clinical Competence.
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.
