Supervision details

I completed my supervision training at Metanoia Institute in Ealing Broadway and use the Seven-eyed model of supervision in my supervision practice. I work with clients of all ages and specialise in working with children and young people.

I am a qualified Person- centred counsellor and utilise additional modalities of Transactional Analysis, Gestalt and CBT as part of my integrative model, along with creative techniques and a creative approach particularly when working with young people.

I draw on my experience of working within Children's services and the knowledge this has yielded of working with children at risk of coming into the care system and children in care, along with an invaluable understanding of working within the social care system. Additional experience that I draw up on includes working for the Children's Voice as part of the Oxfordshire Mediation Service and five years as a school counsellor in a secondary school (Years 7-13) whilst running my own private practice.

I aim to work to build and foster a supportive, trusting and secure relationship with supervisees where we can work collaboratively together within the boundaries and guidance of the BACP ethical framework. I see supervision as an opportunity for learning, growth and self-development.  A place that provides supervisees with the space to reflect, challenge and to be challenged; and the opportunity to explore your client work to help your development in your future practice; to be able to acknowledge the things that have gone well and for you to feel comfortable to talk about the things you may be left holding without fear of judgement.

I offer a free introductory phone call or thirty minute online session to help you decide if I am the right supervisor for you.

All enquiries are welcome.  My contact details are below.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
