Supervision details

What you can expect.. Training and feedback – work alongside the guidance of a trusted, accomplished professional who can objectively critique your work so you can continue to improve as a practitioner. Resources, resources, resources– Introducing you to the tools and sources of inspiration i use in my own work. Professional networking- As a private practitioner, you might not have access to other counselling professionals that can connect you – Your supervisor can be a key professional connection throughout your career. Emotional support – According to statistics, anywhere from 21% – 67% of mental health workers experience burnout, and working in isolation is a major contributing factor. It’s essential to your wellbeing that you fill your network with fellow therapists and counsellors who get what it’s like to experience the unique struggles you’ll encounter on a daily basis. As your supervisor, i will be there to help you get through the tough times and provide you with a sense of camaraderie and encouragement while also challenging you to think things through. Better outcomes for your clients – A supportive relationship with a clinical supervisor has a positive impact on clients, providing you with a sense of trust and safety so you can feel free to explore, learn from mistakes, celebrate success, and go into sessions confident that you can provide your clients the care they need.

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.
