Supervision details

As a counsellor,  supervision has been an integral part of my work.  Supervision not only allows me to reflect on my personal practice but it has allowed me to grow and  shape as a counsellor.  As your supervisor,  I would aim to provide a space which would allow you to reflect on all aspects of your professional work,  including how it touches on you personally. I tend to work with an emphasis on the reformative, energy,  connectedness side of supervision but attention is always paid to the wider supervision setting.  Please get in touch to discuss your supervision requirements in more detail.  

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
