Where to look
Reputable directories, your GP, and word of mouth all work. The key is that whoever you find is registered with a recognised professional body (BACP, UKCP, BPC and similar in the UK).
What to check before booking
- They're registered with a professional body.
- They have experience with what you're bringing.
- Their location and times actually fit your week.
- Their fee is sustainable for you — counselling only works if you can keep going.
