Registered member of BACP (Accred)
Ethical practice
I adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework (2018).
"Ethics" specifies the values, principles and personal moral qualities that inform my work and I pledge to ensure that my client's wellbeing is always central to my practice.
​
I undergo regular, monthly clinical supervision with an experienced practitioner. Supervision protects clients by involving an impartial third party in the work of a counsellor and client, helping to reduce the risk of serious oversight and helping the counsellor concerned to reflect on their own feelings, thoughts, behaviour and general approach with the client. Client identities are kept anonymous.
