Supervision details
I believe that successful supervision is about finding a supervisor who's the right fit for you, who you get along with, and can have honest conversations with. I offer a free 30-minute consultation so we can get a sense of whether my approach to supervision would work for you.
I am BACP Accredited and qualified as a counsellor in 2019. I have worked as a counsellor since then and currently work as a Clinical Lead within a specialist sexual violence service where I work with survivors and support other therapists in their clinical work. This has given me extensive experience of working with trauma and complex presentations.
A significant part of my role involves safeguarding, risk assessment and supporting therapists to think through complex clinical situations. I am experienced in helping therapists navigate situations where there may not be an obvious answer, including safeguarding concerns, risk, professional boundaries and the impact of working with trauma. I bring a calm, thoughtful, and curious approach to this work, helping therapists develop their own clinical judgement.
I am happy to work with both trainee and qualified therapists. I work from a person-centred approach and utilise the Seven-Eyed model of supervision. My aim as a supervisor is to facilitate an environment for both personal and professional development.
I see supervision as more than simply reviewing client work or making sure you're meeting your professional requirements. It's an opportunity to think critically about your practice, understand what's happening in the therapeutic relationship, and consider how your own experiences and responses may be influencing the work.
Please get in touch with any queries, or to book a consultation.
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.
