Supervision details

I have been very fortunate in having great supervision in my counselling career and in drawing on this experience, this is what I hope to offer to you.  Supervision has enabled me to connect with those that offer practical support, guidance without judgement and meeting my personal needs.  I know that finding the right supervisor can be daunting. My hope is that in offering you a safe and supportive space I will be able to aid you and your clients in bringing about personal growth and development. 

As a counsellor, my 'day' job is in working with CYP aged 5-16 and my PP focusses on working with adults - primarily with baby loss/infertility - but also adults that present with anxiety, low mood or are simply struggling at present.

As an integrative therapist I draw on a number of ways of working including person centred, psychodynamic and creative elements - including art, clay, sandtray and metaphor.

I am interested in working with students and newly qualified counsellors who are working with adults and/or children and young people.  As a supervisor I use the seven eyed model and IDM.

I offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation to see if you feel comfortable with me as a supervisor. Supervision is an investment in you and your practice and you deserve to choose someone that suits you. There is no obligation or pressure to book an appointment.

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.
