psycho what?

I've been running a short presentations over the last few months looking at the range of psycholgical services available. Explaining in brief the role of psychiatrist, psychologist,psychotherapist, consellor, coach. It has been a real eye opener for many. Also, many people are concerned to leran that the current lack of regulation means that untrained people can set up as coaches and work with clients presenting with clinical issues including anxiety & depression. This leaves clients & practitioners alike in a vulnerable position. It is generally felt that regulation will be a good thing. Would you have someone to fix your boiler who is not corgi registered....probably not! To make sure people are appropriately qualified/trained look at the ukcp, bacp, bps websites to find someone near you. If you are motivated to change and you find a therapist you can relate to & trust remarkable results can happen relatively quickly.
