Supervision details
I’m currently training to become a supervisor and am offering reduced-cost supervision as part of this process.
As a member of both the BACP and ACC, I bring years of experience working with a range of issues, including:
· Anxiety
· Low self-esteem
· Relationship difficulties
· Anger management
· Bereavement (including child loss)
· Living with additional needs
· Sleep issues
· Parenting problems
As a school counsellor, I have also worked extensively with teenagers and understand the unique challenges they face.
If you’re looking for a supportive, collaborative supervision relationship at an affordable rate, I’d love to hear from you.
£20 per hour / £35 per hour and a half
Sessions are available online or in person, depending on what works best for you.
Contact me to find out more or book a session.

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.
