Basingstoke Counselling Service, a registered charity, was founded in 1985 by a small group of local therapists wanting to provide mental health support to the local community. Since then, the Service has flourished to become a busy, vibrant counselling and training centre, managed by a talented team of clinical and non-clinical staff, dedicated to improving the emotional wellbeing of our community.

We achieve this in two ways. Firstly, we offer one-to-one and couples counselling for adults, via a team of counsellors who provide a professional and affordable service. Our counsellors are supervised and practise within the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. Secondly, we provide a range of training courses for those interested in supporting others with mental health difficulties. We have a long heritage of running highly regarded courses from one-day CPD workshops through to a three-year BACP Accredited Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling.

Based in central Basingstoke (a stone’s throw from War Memorial Park and the town centre shops and transport links), we have a suite of eleven rooms used for counselling, training and administration. All of these rooms have recently been refurbished to a high standard, making BCS a very pleasant and welcoming work environment! This is an exciting time for the Service as we are experiencing a sustained period of growth. To ensure that we continue to deliver high quality services to all our users it is imperative that we recruit talented and committed individuals to complement the current team and help us continue to develop and grow the Service. To minimise our impact on the environment and ensure efficient work practises, all of our systems are now digital.

We understand that discrimination and inequality exist in our society. As an organisation, we aim to treat everyone with dignity and respect, and therefore challenge ourselves regularly to ensure we achieve this. We do this by listening and responding to feedback and regularly reviewing our approach to equality, diversity and inclusion.

Job Description

We are seeking a suitably experienced clinical supervisor who has the skills to offer group supervision to BCS’s counsellors and would like to join our thriving community counselling service. Our clinical supervisors form a fundamental part of the BCS team by supporting the ongoing development of our counsellors and the clinical work of the Service.

We currently have a team of eight clinical supervisors. The current counsellor team of 55 comprises a mix of salaried, volunteer and trainee (both in-house and external) counsellors. These supervision groups are mixed and would have the potential to include all of these counsellors with the exception of the in-house trainees.The majority of our counsellors are from a psychodynamic background, but we have counsellors with integrative, humanistic, transpersonal or TA backgrounds.
