Psychotherapy is usually very safe, but PLEASE make sure you
go to a properly qualified therapist. He/she should be not only properly
qualified and registered, but also able to use other related techniques as a
back-up. Look for NVQ Accreditation (Advice & Guidance Modules or relevant
Training & Development Units) or SQA / QCA approved awards or awarding bodies.
There are a number of types of Psychotherapy available, again for a
complete description see HERE.
Are all Psychotherapists equally qualified?
Unfortunately the industry is self-regulating! Some therapists are
hardly qualified at all! Some are qualified, but only in a narrow area,
e.g. just in person-centred Psychotherapy and no other modalities, this
makes them inflexible and narrow in context.
For a more comprehensive guide see HERE. In short though, look
for:
Codes of Conduct and Ethics.
Qualifications or registrations of non-independent industry bodies (e.g.
Royal Societies)
NVQ Qualifications.
Beware of:
Therapists trained only by distance learning (although in part is OK).
Entertainers dabbling in therapy
Foreign Degrees that are not ethically described!
Please note that at the time of writing (2007) work is
in progress to complete the first stage towards statutory regulation of
all counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists. This first stage
is the writing of a new set of National Occupational Standards for
"Psychological therapies". Although we support this in principle, there
is a concern that this development may lead to a restriction on
therapists combining other therapies with these "psychological
therapies". If it transpires that we are unable to continue in our
flexible and holistic approach to combined use of therapies, we will
cease using the titles of "psychotherapist," and "counsellor", and
instead use the terms "Life Coach" and "holistic therapist", refering
to the former as "using counselling and psychotherapy skills". We will
of course continue to adhere to appropriate National Occupational
Standards in this event, including NOS Hypnotherapy and NOS Healing.
