Supervision details
As a qualified clinical supervisor I offer a confidential non-judgmental space for counsellors to explore their practice safely. A safe space where you can reflect on your work with clients develop your learning and professional practice. This is achieved by working together collaboratively and developing our professional relationship, a relationship that will be built on equality. We will use the BACP Ethical Framework and the BACP Supervision Competency Framework as the foundation for our ethical practice I have over 6 years of experience of working as a counsellor in schools and have a back ground in education as well as counselling. I am experience in working with Young People in both the primary and secondary setting and alongside my Person Centred training I use Mindfulness, Drawing and Talking Therapy, Walk and Talk Session, play therapy and art work to help support the young people in their journey through counselling. I have years of experience in both management teaching and currently lecture at Fife College delivering the HNC & HND in Counselling. I have a over 10 years counselling experience of working with Trauma and experience of working with Adult Survivors of Abuse within a Charity organisation and also run a private practice. I have experience supervising qualified counsellors on a 1-2-1 basis in person and online have experience of supporting face-to-face group peer supervision. Currently I am offering in person or online supervision via Zoom or Teams My fees are £52.50 per hour for qualified counsellors and £45 for student counsellors.
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.
