Integrative Counsellor & Clinical Supervisor

Clinical Supervision

Clinical Supervision is an ethical requirement of those practicing as a Counsellor/Psychotherapist and a requirement for those on Accredited Registers.

Clinical Supervision

The National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) describe supervision as the following:
“Supervision is a valuable way of “checking in” with a more experienced practitioner thus supporting and ensuring Counsellors stay grounded, maintain professional and ethical boundaries, develop their knowledge, both theoretically and practically, as well as focus on self-care to avoid “burnout”. Supervision is fundamental to the provision of safe, ethical and competent counselling.

Supervision Guidance

As a guideline the NCPS recommend 1.5 hours of supervision per month for counsellors who are in full time practice. That said, a counsellor’s level of experience and/or the type of work/client group they are engaging with may affect how much supervision is required. The number of hours and frequency of supervision should be discussed and agreed directly with the supervisor.”

Further Supervision guidance can be found within the NCPS Code of Ethics via this link.

There may be differing requirements in terms of the number of supervision hours required, depending on your regulatory body.

Words cannot describe the gratitude I feels towards you for all your help and support, to which I am eternally grateful. I am so lucky to have had you as my Counsellor; thank you Clare for returning me to me.

I started back at my job today after a long time. Things seem to be going well in general, with my anxiety lessening. I am very grateful for being able to share some of my worries and concerns with you; thank you so much for the help and support you have shown me over the past 11 or so weeks.

One of the most important aspects of therapy I found was having someone who you can have a rapport with and who was also a good listener. Clare’s style and manner instantly put me at ease and made me feel I could talk about any subject. Clare has a very flexible approach and allows you to take the session where you feel you need. I found this very helpful. Through utilising the CBT model she was able to help influence the way I approach certain issues and challenge my own thought processes. I always came out of the sessions in a positive frame of mind and proactive about the way I think. Having finished my sessions recently, I can say with certainty that I’m glad I worked with Clare and would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone else.

Thank you so much Clare for all you support and kindness. You have been such a great help and shown me a lot of understanding whilst also being very pragmatic with the issues I’ve presented. Thank you once again.
