Supervision details

With experience in working with supervisees who counsel in a wide range of contexts and at different stages of their professional life, I respond to what the supervisee brings, to the benefit of the client. I believe that the important supervisory tasks are supporting good practice and challenging blind spots; encouraging skills expansion and being research informed; facilitating reflection on emotions and reactions as well as sustaining counsellor resourcefulness in this challenging and demanding work.

I believe the connection we make and the relationship we sense we can form together is fundamental to the supervisory work we will do together. It is important that you get what you need and can be open and honest with me as you reflect on all aspects of your counselling work.

I am trained in Pluralism (University of Abertay) and I creatively integrate characteristics of a pluralistic way of working into my supervisory practice.

I am on the team of National Supervisors with CRUSE and have experience as a manager of a Counselling Service.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
