Supervision details
Are you looking for informative counselling supervision, that will help you grow and develop as a practitioner? I aim to meet you where you are as a counsellor, at whatever stage in your counselling career. I believe we are all constantly learning and changing: supervision is a vital part of that growth as a counsellor.
I have a Level 6 qualification in Counselling Supervision and primarily use the 7-Eyed model of supervision. My supervision practice is informed by my person-centred approach.
I have 10 years’ experience as a counsellor in the voluntary sector, schools and in private practice. With my extensive experience of school counselling, I feel I can offer particular insight and support to those working with children and young people.
It is important to recognise the important role supervision plays in our lives as counsellors. As your practice changes and you may need different forms of support, such as supervisory support through the accreditation process. Part of my role as supervisor is to help you to identify areas of growth and development, supporting you to provide the best possible service to your clients. Supervision is a collaborative endeavour, and within the supervisory relationship I aim to be both supportive and challenging, when needed.
In our first session, you will experience a warm, welcoming environment in which you can reflect on your counselling practice. We will explore your supervision needs, your self-care and consider areas of professional development.
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).
