Supervision details
Hello,
I am Naomi and I provide supervision to counsellors, particularly those working within school settings. My integrative approach incorporates psychodynamic, person-centred, systemic, and attachment-based perspectives, ensuring a comprehensive and enriching supervisory experience. A session may explore relational dynamics within the supervisory space, between counsellor and client. Supervision may consider feelings within counsellor, client or supervisor and how this reflects the wider systems. The felt sense, any projections, transference and countertransference always provides rich material to be considered and any creative process and symbolism can be brought to the bubble for insight.
Having been a supervisor in school for a few years, I bring a wealth of experience and a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges faced in these settings. I have also completed a Level 6 Certficate in Therapeutic Supervision (CPCAB). More recently I have been supervising in private practice and helped develop a mental health service in a school. My approach is collaborative and reflective, aimed at fostering your professional growth and enhancing your therapeutic skills.
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.
