Supervision details
I see my role as a supervisor as one of working collaboratively with you to facilitate your reflection on your work and your congruence in it, underpinned by my person-centred and pluralistic philosophy to life and practice.
Through the supervision process and the activities within it, I expect that my supervisees will increasingly bridge gaps (where relevant) in their understanding between theory and practice, reflect on their work and review alternative perspectives, take fresh ideas back into their client work, wrestle with and probably untangle some ethical dilemmas, feel refreshed and reinvigorated in themselves, and grow both professionally and personally.
In my experience as a supervisee, when the balance between my client’s welfare and my own wellbeing/personal and professional development have been in harmony, I have experienced supervision as being positive: this is what I hope to offer to my supervisees.
If, following our email correspondence, we agree to work together, I will then send you some onboarding emails which will include practical information you might need as well as a working agreement and consent request for you to review.
We could also use the first session as an opportunity to explore what it is you’d like out of supervision and to get a sense as to whether we feel we are a good fit to work together.
In the session, we will be working with whatever it is you want to focus on after clarifying/renegotiating aspects of the working agreement to suit us both (where relevant).
At the end of that first session, we can decide whether or not we wish to continue to work together. Or you could take some time to think about it and come back to me.
Just like counselling/psychotherapy, the supervisory relationship is vital. Therefore I like us to factor in a review after our first 3 sessions together to determine how comfortable both parties feel regarding continuing working together.
I'm open to working face-to-face-in-person as well as remotely by video calls or telephone.
The next step is for you to send me a message to arrange that initial session. Let’s get the ball rolling and see how it goes…
My *fees for Supervision is as follows: £35 for up to 30minutes; £65 for up to 60 minutes; £85 for up to 90 minutes (*I am open to discussing concessions with people who, due to current financial constraints, might not be able to otherwise access supervision.)
I also offer group supervision to practitioners in private practice (who want a trained supervisor to facilitate their supervision group) as well as for agencies. Feel free to contact me to discuss your requirements.
The Association of Christian Counsellors and Linked Professions is a professional body representing and setting standards for Christian counselling and care in the UK. The organisation is made up of various different membership categories, including Counsellor and Accredited, and requires all members working as counsellors to undertake Continuous Professional Development on a regular basis.
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.
