Member organisations

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Low-quality services commonly don't perform well or give you what you expect. Poor or limited training /experience and inadequate accessibility can lead to frustration, dissatisfaction and further investments being made.
Investing in this service might feel like a significant step. It's natural to have concerns about the cost and whether it will truly deliver the desired outcomes.
Engaging in expertise can be seen as an act of self-care, it's about prioritizing your mental health & wellness and making a conscious choice to nurture and support yourself.
On booking, you gain access to an experienced therapist and proven methodologies, which can empower you to make informed decisions, take better control of your life trajectory and achieve your goals with greater confidence.
I understand that you may have hesitations but your goal is to find a therapeutic relationship that you can trust to support your long-term success.
A Personalized and Bespoke Approach:
Tailored Treatment: Treatment plans are created specifically for each client's unique needs and goals.
Flexibility and Customization: Ability to easily adjust schedules to accommodate busy lifestyles and preferences.
Private and Discreet: Treatment takes place in rustic yet spacious surroundings. Self-contained in a privately owned, Grade 2 listed building neatly located in the centre of historic Leek Staffordshire. For your enjoyment, a selection of amenities is included, delicate tissues, a vanity mirror with a takeaway comb, and a variety of beverages, both chilled and hot.
For added comfort, luxurious warm or weighted blankets are also available but most importantly, a space to think delve deeper and truly meet yourself.
I look forward to meeting you soon
