Counsellor / Psychotherapist Accreditation Scheme
Accreditation enables clients, employers and colleagues to recognise proven, competent practitioners. This means that the selection of a counsellor or therapist can be based on an informed choice rather than speculation. To date, BACP has nearly 10000 accredited counsellor/psychotherapists.
‘To demonstrate the capacity for independent, competent, ethical practice’
BACP counsellor/psychotherapist accreditation is awarded to members who can meet the standard for accreditation. This standard is supported by the criteria for application. To become accredited, you must provide enough evidence to show that you can meet each criterion and that you can meet the overall standard for the scheme.
