The resources are based on current research and evidence and reviewed by member-led focus groups and experts in the field.

BACP members have a contractual commitment to work in accordance with the Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions 2026. These Ethics in Practice resources are not contractually binding but are intended to support practitioners by providing general information on principles and policy applicable at the time of publication, in the context of the core ethical principles, values and personal moral qualities of BACP.

Further Ethics in Practice resources are being developed and will be available in due course.
