Our expert review process

When it comes to mental health information, it can be hard to know who to trust. Opinions can be offered as facts and unqualified people can inadvertently spread misinformation. Our editorial team is rigorous with research, but we recognise the value of having qualified experts check our work.

This means that as part of our content production process, we include experts - members of Counselling Directory. When reviewing our information, they can highlight anything we may be missing and bring our attention to changes that may be needed.

The landscape is always shifting in the mental health industry. New research might shed light on a certain subject, or certain terminology may fall out of usage. By including experts in our content production process and encouraging feedback from readers, we can stay on top of anything we may otherwise miss.

Who are our experts?

Our editorial team reaches out to the counsellors and psychotherapists who have a membership with us. They seek out those who have knowledge and expertise in the topic we’re creating information about.

What information do they review?

Currently, we ask experts to review the information we publish in our What’s worrying you? section, and our Types of therapy section.

Can I review your information?

We are only asking members of Counselling Directory to review our information at this time. If you are interested in becoming a member with us, you can join us. If you are a member with us, we would recommend joining the press list in the Members Area and sharing your areas of expertise here.

If you have any questions or want to learn more about information published on Counselling Directory, feel free to get in touch.
