Supervision details
My way of working is informed by the Hawkins and Shohet's seven eyed model of supervision.
I am an Integrative therapist and my model includes psychodynamic theory and Transactional Analysis with Person Centred theory being at the core of my practice.
I run a private practice where I see adults and young people and I have previously offered counselling to students in secondary schools and within a PRU.
I have experience of 1-1 and also group supervision which includes non clinical supervision of professionals working within a school setting.
I currently supervise groups of counsellors working within school settings and also trainee counsellors within a training academy.
Supervision is fundamental for the provision of safe, ethical and competent counselling. It is very much a collaborative process where we will work together in a safe, relaxed, supportive environment allowing you the time and space to reflect on your client work in order to enhance the therapeutic relationship, ensuring that you are operating within the ethical boundaries whilst developing your knowledge of theoretical concepts as well as your own self awareness.
I have a room large enough to accommodate group work but am also happy to travel to a work place within Hertfordshire or work remotely over zoom.
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.
