Supervision details
Counselling clinical supervision is one of the most important professional relationships a counsellor can develop. Supervision is not just a box to tick or a course requirement it is much more, it is a safe space where to explore your practice. What happened in session? How did this make you feel? Why did this client have such an impact on you during or after their session. More importantly what does the client need from you, good supervision is about the above and so much more.
As a supervisor my job is to help you develop good practice and ethical awareness through reflection, support and challenge. If you are not challenged in a supportive way you will not grow, same as not challenging enough will result in lacking potential growth. Supervision is about building a supportive and reflective stance for you as a counsellor whether experienced or trainee counsellor to grow.
Please contact me should you have any questions, I would be happy to have a supervision with you to see if we are the right fit for each other.
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.
