Tracy Flux

I am accredited counsellor and a qualified supervisor with 11 years experience as a therapist..  I trained in the Advanced Diploma Level 5 (CPCAB) in Psychotherapeutic counselling, using an integrative approach. I have completed my Advanced Specialist Diploma in Clinical Supervision.

I currently working part -time in higher education and have been for the past ten years, supporting both adults and young people.     I have my own private practice supporting both professionals and individuals.

I have experience working in different sectors for example, charities, EAP, GP practices and Local authorities, providing therapy.     

My aim to provide a safe environment so individuals feel safe to talk openly and to support them in achieving their goals. I value the importance to build a trusting relationship and this enables us to explore inner values and believes. My aim is to promote equality in our relationship. I provide a safe and comfortable counselling room that is based in the heart of Chorley town centre, easy access via car, bus and train station.  

I am qualified supervisor and I have worked in education for 11 years. My specialism in supervision is working with young people. I am contracted with Leeds Becket University to provide supervision for the hub in education. I am a member of an alliance of supervisor's and this enables me to keep my knowledge and skills updated. 

I believe the importance in supervision is been able to feel comfortable in the relationship and feel supported. Supervision provides a safe place for us to stand back and reflect on oneself and the clients needs, organizations, expectations and demands.

My training for supervision is informed by the model of Hawkins & Shohert & Page & Wosket. Supervision is based upon coaching, development, resourcing and qualitative. Coaching is to fully trust in the relationship, development is through reflection on self and others process, resourcing is how we respond to our colleagues, qualitative is understanding the process.
