Our Board
All of our board members are volunteers who work in a range of sectors including counselling, banking, and charities.
Bright Light Practitioners
Your practitioner will be professionally trained and either qualified or in the final stages of their diploma-level training. Some of our practitioners are specialists in their fields.
All adhere to the Cosca Statement of Ethics and Code of Practice and are members of their relevant professional associations (BACP, AFT, COSRT etc)
All our practitioners receive ongoing professional supervision provided by Bright Light and Relationships Scotland. Practitioners receive both regular individual and group supervision with external supervisors as well as further development workshops throughout the year.
Our practitioner team is self-employed and works part-time for Bright Light, however, we employ one counsellor who works for us full-time. Caroline Hammersley.
