Supervision details
Following successful completion of the “Form and Freedom” Post Graduate certificate level supervision course, I offer person centred supervision as part of my private practice offer. I supervise both fellow counselling professionals and those in other helping professions and have worked with integrative and person centred counsellors in a supervisory capacity. I also work with a local counselling charity offering group supervision monthly to counsellors there.
My supervision practice is based on the Seven Eyed Model and Appreciative Inquiry. The aim is to create a space that feels one for reflection, collaboration and curiosity. Sometimes the work can feel quite isolating and having space in supervision to share clients is invaluable. The aim is that supervision will feel grounded with respect for each other as practitioners, with a clear focus on ethical practice.
We will explore your therapeutic relationships and client work and how your practice feeds into you as a person. Supervision can at times be challenging and thought provoking as well and enlightening and enjoyable. We can learn from clients, from each other and from all the differing relationships.
I aim to offer encouragement, support and a diversity of experience to help you develop your skills and confidence. With my background of voluntary counselling in the charity sector, previous employment as a counsellor in a hospice setting, work as a therapeutic practitioner in the NHS and successful private practice I believe I have a variety of experience to bring to supervision sessions and look forward to working with you in a professional relationship that centres on you and your clients.
If you are curious to find out more about how I work as a supervisor do get in touch for a no obligation chat either by phone, video call or via email. I work face to face in Beccles Suffolk but also online and by telephone if you prefer. Please ask for current supervision rate.
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.
