Supervision details
My supervision practice has a person-centred foundation, integration of theory with practice alongside a creative element always with a focus on supporting you in your practice. As your supervisor my aim is to build a solid, professional, collaborative relationship with you, offering you my objective thoughts and reflections to help you in your relationship with your clients. Qualified counsellors, counsellors in training on placement and agencies seeking group supervision are welcome to contact me to discuss their needs in more detail, or to arrange to an initial introductory meeting. In addition to talking any issues through, I may suggest we work creatively by using action work, creative tools/media or creative thinking. You are free to choose what works best for you and this will always be respected. Sometimes exploring different avenues can provide a broader opportunity to explore resistance and obstacles within clinical work. These methods may, at times, be very enlightening, allowing you to feel confident in exploring your practice in a new way, and hopefully allowing you to see your clients from a different perspective, thus provoking therapeutic change in your clients. I very much look forward to hearing from you. I currently offer clinical supervision to other Counsellors, Counsellors-in-training, groups and those in other helping professions. I offer supportive and warm nurturing environment where exploration, reflection and creative methods of engaging in therapeutic work with others can be developed. Supervision is provided within 1-1 settings and group supervision For more information and an informal chat feel free to please contact me
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
