Supervision details

As a Person-Centred Supervisor, I offer a supportive and facilitating relationship underpinned by the core conditions of warmth, transparency and respect. I strive to offer a space within which you, the supervisee, can bring all aspects of your work - the doubts, questions, raw edges and the good stuff too. As I see it, the relationship is paramount and, as such, I invite an ongoing conversation about our work together. I hope that by working collaboratively, compassionately and openly, together we will create a holding space for reflection and an opportunity for growthful exploration of the therapeutic work at hand. Whilst being curious and enquiring, I also endeavour to respect your process, your pace, and your style and way of being as a therapist. Please do get in touch if you'd like to discuss further. 

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.
