Supervision details
I am an integrative counsellor working in Private practice, for a CSA Charity and as a contract counsellor within a counselling and wellbeing practice. I offer supervision to counsellors and trainee counsellors both online and face to face, my room is based just on the outskirts of Somersham.
I believe the supervisory relationship is as important as the therapeutic relationship so I feel it is important that a 'counsellor' finds the right supervisor for them, one that meets their needs.
A feel a good supervisory relationship should be trusting, open and honest, a place where you can freely explore the good, the bad and the ugly!
I aim to provide you with a confidential, respectful, non-judgemental, developmental space. I want my supervisees to feel valued, encouraged and motivated, to feel they are safe to evaluate, reflect and explore their practice, to feel they have a companion as they go on a journey with their clients. I offer a collaborative space to share our wistom, knowledge and experience working together to create fresh insight, support and growth.
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.
