Supervision details
As a counselling supervisor I offer you a professional relationship where you can feel fully supported in your demanding work as a counsellor/ therapist, and where your ongoing growth and development as a professional practitioner is a key component of the supervision process. I offer face to face or online supervision.
As a supervisor I have experience of supervising counsellors and psychotherapists who work in private practice and a variation of organisations. I also have experience of supervising counsellors who work with all age groups including children and young people.
I have been a qualified therapeutic counselling supervisor for 7 years, and a qualified counsellor for 20 years. I am an Accredited registered member of the BACP. I have a CPCAB Level 6 Certificate in Therapeutic Counselling Supervision. I am a Person-Centred Counsellor, a Gestalt therapist and an EMDR therapist, I have a masters degree in Counselling Studies, a Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling and an Advanced Diploma in Gestalt Therapy.
As a counsellor I worked as a family counsellor in a local children’s hospice for 13 years. I now have my own private counselling and supervision practice. I have experience of working with clients of all age groups including children and young people and I also work with couples. During my time working at the hospice I supervised members of staff including nurses, occupational health therapists and other heath care professionals.
I have a counselling venue on the outskirts of Oswestry town centre (parking is available). I also provide supervision to counsellors and therapists from all over the UK and have an extended certificate in online and telephone supervision.
I offer a free half hour introduction meeting either face to face or online, the introductory meeting will give us the opportunity to discuss how I can best support you in your professional role. Please contact me if you would like to arrange an introductory meeting or contact me if you have any questions about my supervision service.
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.
