Supervision details
In my supervision I bring myself and my experience to a shared space in which your clients are the focus and your work is honoured.
I hope if I can share with you some words from my own supervisor, you will feel a sense of how I work as a therapist. Trusting that in my own supervision work with yourself, I will present in the same way and encourage you to connect deeply with your work in an empowering way.
”Julie is a practitioner of great strength, and ever greater compassion. She has an innate integrity within her that makes her a safe space for people, they can feel accepted… in her presence. She thinks deeply about each client, using her wisdom and experience as a guide in sessions and in life.”
I have been working in private practice for over 5 years now, and would describe my work as integrative in the sense that my training was person-centred and to that I have added CBT skills, hypnotherapy training, and continue to develop an interest in how our bodies, mind and emotions are all connected.
Previous to private practice, I set up and developed a school counselling service within which I was based for almost 10years. My experience of working with families and young people, for many years, encourages me to keep in mind the contexts and relevance of legislation in relation to clients.
I stay with what you bring to supervision, sharing thoughts and experience as well as any relevant reading of CPD knowledge with the intention to encourage supervision-appropriate connections with your valid experience, personal opinions and values.
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.
