All
our counsellors are professionally trained
to diploma level or equivalent qualification. They
are
expected to be
en-route to accreditation with BACP, (the British Association for
Counselling and
Psychotherapy) or UKCP
(United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy) , and to
be on the UK
Register of
Counsellors.
As an organisational member of BACP we are bound
by its Ethical Framework for Good Practice
in Counselling and
Psychotherapy and subject to the Professional Conduct Procedure therein.
All our counsellors receive regular professional
supervision with an emphasis on strictly maintaining
confidentiality.
We are committed to quality assurance and evaluate our work.
We have a commitment to Kent University to
consider placements for those entering the last stages
of
qualification. Students have usually undertaken between 2-3yrs of training.
