Supervision details
As well as a counsellor I am also a qualified supervisor, providing clinical supervision to both qualified and trainee counsellors. I am on the approved register for several colleges, universities and counselling organisations and have a particular interest in working with student counsellors.
I am a qualified supervisor having completed my 'Level 6 Advanced Certificate in Clinical Supervision Including Online and Telephone Working'. I practice a person-centred approach to supervision which emphasises the person of the counsellor/ supervisee and the development of their therapeutic abilities rather than just focusing on the individual concerns of clients.
It is my belief that when counsellors are not attuned to their own needs, fears and unconscious factors, these can negatively interfere with the client's process. Therefore a major goal of supervision is helping supervisees grow in self-awareness, self-confidence and understanding of the therapeutic process. When supervising I use the Hawkins and Shohet’s Seven-Eyed Model of Supervision, which integrates the relational and systemic aspects of supervision. As a qualified supervisor, I also adhere to and draw on the and I have my own qualified BACP supervisor who supervises my supervisee work.
As a supervisor, it is my aim to build a strong working alliance with my supervisees, where trust can be established to allow for a safe place for them to come and share how things are “really” going in relation to their therapeutic work. I endeavour to offer an effective supervisory relationship which fosters a non-judgmental approach, offering both support and appropriate challenge. I aim to provide all my supervisees with my warmth and respect for them as fellow counsellors, my interest in their experiences and processes with their clients and how this might be affecting them. My commitment is to be present where they are, to be an active agent in the supervisory relationship and to draw on my facilitative skills, knowledge and experience to provide an exploratory and educative supervisory relationship which promotes their professional growth and development.

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.
