BACP Registered
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.

Further information
*If you are looking to build skills like mindfulness and be better at managing your emotions, DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy) could be a good option for you. Especially, if you are overwhelmed and feeling that factors outside of your control are negatively impacting your quality of life, health, or relationships.
We are getting asked about DBT more and more. It’s hard to access DBT on the NHS and often there is a long waiting list, so I’m pleased to be able to provide this much-needed service.
Research shows that DBT has been used successfully to treat people experiencing depression, bulimia, binge-eating, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic-stress disorder, and substance abuse.
It’s not a quick fix but it can help change behaviour in the long term. Clients who have DBT skills training will be supplied with a DBT workbook that we will work through together at a pace that is comfortable for them.
What’s the difference between CBT and DBT?
Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) is a specific form of cognitive-behavioural therapy. Whilst similar there are some important differences. DBT seeks to build upon the foundation of CBT, to help enhance its effectiveness and address specific concerns that the founder of DBT, psychologist Marsha Linehan, saw as deficits in CBT.
