Supervision details
For me supervision is a joint undertaking - a place where the practitioner aided by the supervisor can attend to their clients, and themselves as they explore their client/practitioner relationships and the wider systemic context enabling them to improve the quality of their work, transform their client relationships and continually develop themselves and their practice. A safe space where the therapist can become aware of the processes taking place within themselves in the relationship one that can be conceptualised as parallel to the therapy relationship. A working alliance between supervisor and counsellor in which the counsellor can offer an account of their work, reflect on it, receive feedback and where appropriate guidance. The object of this alliance is to enable the counsellor to gain ethical competence, confidence and creativity and to provide the best possible service to their client.

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.

The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
