Supervision details
Having the right Supervisor is the most important factor for successful and fulfilling practice. It will help you feel supported, nurtured and develop your practice in a way that makes you feel safe. If you are looking for a supervisor then why not come and meet me. The initial meet is free and will allow you to see if we fit; there is no obligation as I know from experience finding the right person to work with is imperative especially when things get tough. You need someone to celebrate the good but help you pick through the not so good. I will be that person for you. I am an Approved Supervisor by the NCS and hold a PGCE in Clinical Supervision along with a teaching qualification that makes me especially equipped to provide what you need. If you are qualified then I will support and guide you to continue along the path to provide ethical, safe and rewarding practice for your clients. If you are a trainee counsellor then I am the Supervisor that will help you to make the best of this worthwhile relationship. The Supervision you have as a trainee will assist with your learning, supporting your work in placement and to achieve your qualification. A good Supervisor will walk beside you as you develop in skill and confidence. I also offer clinical supervision to teaching staff and can come to you if necessary.
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.
