Counselling PsychologyWhat is Counselling Psychology?Counselling Psychology is a distinctive profession within psychology with a specialist focus, which links most closely to the allied professions of psychotherapy and counselling. It pays particular attention to the meanings, beliefs, context and processes that are constructed both within and between people and which affect the psychological wellbeing of the person. What qualifications in Counselling Psychology does the Society offer?The Qualification in Counselling Psychology provides an award whereby independent trainees can demonstrate their competence as Counselling Psychologists and thereby become eligible to be entered on the Register of Chartered Psychologists of the British Psychological Society. It also conveys eligibility for full membership of the Division of Counselling Psychology. The Qualification is not a course of study; it is a pattern of evidence requirements and assessments around which trainees create their own training programme.
