Supervision details
In supervision, you need a place to set down some of what you've been carrying, whether it belongs to others or to yourself. Somewhere that feels comfortable enough for challenge, supportive enough for mistakes and not knowing, and encouraging enough for learning and growth. You want to do the best by your clients, providing evidence-based, high quality therapy, and to bring yourself into the room without bringing all the other realities of life alongside. Supervision allows you a place to balance what's going on for your clients with what's going on for you, and to find a way to make it all feel manageable.
I am a CBT therapist and supervisor with experience working in the NHS and third sector. I aim to make you feel supported enough that reflecting on your work and learning feels energising and not exhausting.
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).
