“BACP is the leading professional body for counselling and psychotherapy and an
automatic reference point for anyone seeking information on counselling and psychotherapy
in the United Kingdom.
BACP is the largest and broadest body within the sector. Through its work BACP ensures
that it meets its remit of public protection whilst also developing and informing
its members. Its work with large and small organisations within the sector ranges
from advising schools on how to set up a counselling service, assisting the NHS
on service provision, working with voluntary agencies and supporting independent
practitioners. BACP participates in the development of counselling and psychotherapy
at an international level.
The quality of response that BACP is able to offer has led the Association to being
the prime partner in projects with national and local organisations, bodies and
groups.”
