Supervision details
As a psychotherapist, I offer professional supervision. This consultation is available for professionals which include psychotherapists, counsellors, trainees on counselling, psychotherapy courses, social workers, school and nursery staff, foster carers and kinship carers.
Supervision helps those seeking supervision process the experience of being with their clients, or those in their care, and it offers the ability to recognise, understand and make use of this experience (transference & countertransference). With supervision, I aim to offer an ‘outside’, where professionals and carers can step back and reflect sufficiently to see how they might be affected by the inner worlds of their clients or those in their care.
I take an eclectic approach to supervision. My main orientation is psychodynamic, although this is strongly informed by my person-centred, systemic background. By using my developmental understandings which encompass attachment theory, neurobiology and developmental science as well as mindfulness and trauma-informed approaches. I will often use, body-awareness, sand-tray play and movement to enhance the supervision process.
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
