Supervision details
I am a qualified supervisor with a Level 7 Advanced Diploma in Counselling Supervision, accredited by National Council of Integrated Psychotherapists (NCIP). This training enables me to not only work with counsellors and therapist, but to other professionals such as teachers, nursing staff etc., I am able to work with individuals and groups.
I use a variety of theoretical models to inform my work but am guided most strongly by Hawkins and Shohet 7 eyed model of supervision, other models I have worked with are Page and Wosket's Cyclical model and Carroll's model. I endeavour to be supportive, encouraging and ethically minded but also like to challenge my supervisees. I seek to build an accepting and empathic relationship so you can feel secure to be honest and talk freely about your work. I can work with supervisees who are trained/training in adults, children and young people.
I work with supervisee face to face in Risca or online. My fee is £50 for 1 hour of supervision per supervisee, group fees to be discussed depending on size. please contact me to arrange an initial meeting to discuss supervision needs.
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.
