Supervision details
Approaches to supervision
My aim in supervision is to create a space for you to explore your work with clients whilst supporting you to grow as a therapist. My approach is flexible; sometimes educational, sometimes reflective, sometimes challenging but always supportive and non-judgemental. I work in a collaborative way enabling shared learning. Everything I do is underpinned by an integrative, humanistic approach.
Since qualifying as a counsellor I have been drawn to bereavement and loss and have worked extensively in these areas. In the last few years I have worked with pregnancy and baby loss in particular, which is hugely rewarding. As always with clients, they rarely come with one presentation, so although my work often focusses on loss, all sorts of other challenges come in to the room too, such as anxiety, depression, addiction, risky behaviours and relationship challenges.
So if you'd like to see if I might be the supervisor for you, please get in touch.
I offer supervision in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework for counsellors and currently offer supervision sessions by video only. I have an Advanced Certificate in Clinical Supervision and have been a supervisor since 2021.
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).
