As horrendous as this article is and I deeply feel for those affected by unethical so-called therapists, I am glad this is in the news and anyone can call themselves a ‘therapist’ and that is deeply scary.

If you’re choosing a therapist please check their qualifications, ask them about their experience, and check if they’re registered with accrediting bodies such as the BACP, BABCP or UKCP. You can only be registered and accredited if you have a certain level of qualification, experience and adhere to ongoing development, monitoring and adhere to their ethical or practicing frameworks.

Once you’re satisfied the therapist or counsellor is adequately trained then seek a free consultation to meet before booking to see what vibe you get.

There are some excellent therapists and counsellors out there but it is an unregulated profession so do your due diligence!

FYI - counsellors and psychotherapists are required under the BACP and UKCP to have had an extensive amount of their own personal therapy. This is not the case for some other modalities including CBT (BABCP) and Psychologists.

Sky News delves into the murky world of therapy - where anyone can set themselves up as a counsellor or psychotherapist without formal training, qualifications, or oversight.
