The requirement of the BACP Ethical Framework for good Practice requires me to have regular supervision. Part of this is to ensure that the clients' needs are being met and that all Ethical standards are adhered to, throughout the counselling process. It also takes into account the well-being of the counsellor.

Another essential part of supervision encourages and facilitates the ongoing self-development, continued learning and self-monitoring of the counsellor.

My supervisor is fully qualified, accredited and is an Individual Member of the BACP. She is also bound by its Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and subject to the Professional Conduct Procedure therein.     

Confidentiality

I treat all information disclosed to me strictly confidential. Any aspect of my cases discussed with my supervisor is also treated as confidential. My clients are not disclosed to any third party. However, should I feel a client is of danger to his/herself or others, I reserve the right to inform outside agencies. This will not be done without, wherever possible informing/discussing this with my client first.
