Organisations

We welcome organisations of any size which share our values and ethos and work within the wider field of wellbeing, mental health, and/or counselling and psychotherapy. The organisation does not need to provide counselling services.

Being an Organisational Member does not confer a mark of accreditation or approval by the Society. Instead, it functions more as a partnership of reciprocal support and encouragement.

The benefits of organisational membership are mutual support and growth, sharing of communications where relevant, and the ability to work together on projects and keep each other informed.

How to Apply

To apply, please fill out the following form:

• Organisational Membership Application Form
  
• Annual membership for charities, voluntary or not-for-profit organisations is £100
• Annual membership for commercial/profit-making organisations is £200

A Recognised Counselling Service is an organisation which provides direct counselling services to clients and has at least two registrants on the Society's Accredited Register. Gaining this status is a mark of quality and recognition offered by the Society.

The Society undertakes a rigorous checking process before recognising a service. This includes (but is not limited to) proof of insurance, a proper complaints process, abiding by our Code of Ethics and an understanding that the service could be subject to audit.

The benefits of being an RCS include the public assurance provided that the service has been vetted and approved by the Society, as well as the support the Society may offer the service.

Our Organisational members agree to abide by the Society's Code of Ethics which demonstrates to peers and the public that, as an organisation, they are committed to safe and ethical practice. If you're interested in joining our other partners and working with the Society to support and grow your organisation, we look forward to hearing from you.

How to Apply

To apply, please fill out the following form:

• Recognised Counselling Service Application Form
• Annual membership for organisations with up to 10 employees is £200
• Annual membership for organisations with 10 or more employees is £300

Organisational members who run, for example, a library of counselling or psychotherapy related resources for counsellors can get in touch with us to find out about our Trusted Resource recognition. Trusted Resource recognition cannot be applied to training courses, regular training events or any activities that would otherwise require training provider recognition. It can be applied to things like short one-off lectures, journal articles/reference libraries, guest speakers events etc.

Resources must be high quality (evidenced by positive, legitimate customer reviews) and be produced by relevant qualified/experienced professionals. The organisation must have a robust privacy policy and relevant insurance (if applicable) in place. A random sampling of content will be verified by a Society Officer.
