Supervision details
As an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor who works with a creative flair myself, I also seek to offer the same integrative creative approach to the supervision experience I offer. My supervision training has embodied a creative approach and I am passionate and committed to developing supervision process that meets the diverse individual needs of those I work with.
As part of our initial supervision session I encourage us to explore what values and expectations we both have, and that we may feel are necessary within our contract, so that we can develop and strengthen our working rapport, but so that you feel empowered to negotiate an experience that has you feeling enabled and enhanced within in your work. I will also seek to understand what your past experiences have been within supervision, and what you feel maybe has or has not been helpful in the past, with a view to being hopeful of what you may need within our supervision to best support you going forward.
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.
