Overview

With over 1.5 million referrals to talking therapies every year, it is a staggering realization to many that counselling and therapy in the UK is not regulated, monitored or sanctioned in any way. The British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) alone has over 47,000 members, and while this is largest registration body for counsellors in the UK, it is certainly not the only one. This book provides three personal accounts of the significant harm that counsellors and therapists are capable of causing their clients, and an examination of the counselling industry as a whole, with a focus on the lack of regulation and supervision that so many clients remain unaware of. It is estimated that upwards of 25,000 individual counselling qualifications are issued each year, and many of these will never go on to register with any accrediting body at all. Encompassing a review of different counselling modalities, including psychodynamic, person-centred, existential and integrative, this book highlights the troubling state of the industry's failings and how you can protect yourself as both a client and a counsellor.
