Supervision details
I am a trainee supervisor looking to provide low cost supervision to both counsellors who are experienced and those of you just starting out, who might need a calm and gentle hand to guide you through.
My aim is to provide you with a safe, professional space to support your work with clients and your professional development.
Clinical supervision allows for structured reflection on your practice and encourages the development of skills, knowledge, awareness and ethical judgement within a supportive relationship.
I aim to develop a trusting relationship with you where you feel comfortable to bring your challenges, successes, dilemmas and even errors – as we are all human and can get things wrong sometimes.
As a counsellor and a trainee supervisor, I use a relational, integrative model based primarily on a combined person centred and psychodynamic modality. I also draw on attachment theory and on bereavement and trauma-informed models.
The main model that I use to underpin my supervision work is the Seven Eyed Model, which helps to explore casework from the perspective of the client, the supervisee and the supervisor and to look at the relationships that exist between all of them.
My areas of specialism include: bereavement, trauma, loss, working with adults with ADHD and autism, living with cancer, attachment and relationship difficulties as well as anxiety, depression, work-related stress and burnout.
I have a background in teaching and psychology and worked as a local authority Educational Psychologist for many years in schools and as a co-leader of a team of psychologists.
I offer a free 15 minute online consultation to see if we would be a good match to work together as supervisor and supervisee. Following this we can go on to book our first full, paid session.
In the first full session we will look at your caseload and how you are set up to work e.g. online, in person, privately, as part of an agency etc. We will spend some time getting to know each other as I feel it is important for me to have a sense of what else is going on in your life to best support you in supervision and with your own wellbeing. From there we will go on to discuss any casework that you would like to bring to the session.
I am happy to offer 1 hour or 1.5 hour supervision sessions at a cost of £25 per hour.
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.
