What does it mean to be BABCP-accredited?
The British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP), is the voluntary regulatory body for Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapists in the UK. The BABCP CBT register is accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
A BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist is one who has demonstrated competence, has suitable qualifications and experience, who practices regular, supervised CBT and engages in ongoing professional development to ensure their practice is up to date. Accredited psychotherapists agree to keep to the BABCP standards of conduct, performance and ethics. Accreditation is renewed annually.
As psychotherapy in the UK is unregulated, accreditation is a way for a therapist to demonstrate that they practice safely, competently and to the highest standards.
For further information about accreditation you can visit the BABCP website. For more information about the PSA accreditation standards you can visit the PSA website.
