Supervision details
I am a trainee supervisor offering qualified counsellors and psychotherapists supervision for a reduced rate of £35-Hour £50-90 minutes.
*First two sessions free*
I have over several years' experience of working as a counsellor with adults, children and young people enabling clients to overcome a wide range of challenges. I am registered and accredited with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I have experience of working in a variety of settings within the NHS Talking Therapies, MIND, bereavement services, Employment Assistant Programmes (EAP), sexual violence and abuse services as a counsellor working with adults, children and young people.
I have been trained and use the CRAFT model that draws on sections from both the following models:
Proctors Clinical Model Of Supervision (1987) covering by three areas: normative, formative and restorative.
Hawkins & Shohet – 7 Eyed Model Of Supervision (1985) focusing on the relationship between client, therapist and supervisor.
The CRAFTS model combines creativity, reflective practice, awareness, focus, transformation and systemic thinking:
Creativity: integrating creative methods into supervision, encouraging thinking outside the box. Giving depth and exploring new perspectives, by using imagery and colour to enhance the therapeutic supervisory experience.
Reflection: Encouraging reflective practice on therapy sessions, during and between supervision sessions. Reflecting on what went well, what could have gone better?
Awareness: Working together increasing awareness within supervision, in alignment with the Seven-Eyed Model. Exploring aspects of self, parallel process, transference and countertransference.
Focus: The main goal-making sure that the counsellor is working ethically and that clients, are getting the best care possible. Aiding counsellors' development, learning new skills, and handling tough situations effectively.
Transformation: What are the transformations/key takeaways/learnings are there for the supervisee. Highlighting the potential for personal and professional transformation through the supervisory process.
Systemic: .Help the supervisee explore the wider context, including but not exclusively the social dynamics, ghosts, stakeholders and various cultural influences impacting the therapeutic process.
**It would be worth having coloured pens and paper ready for each supervision session; I may also suggest other creative interventions using items such as symbols or working with imagery. **
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.
