How do I choose a Counsellor/Psychotherapist?
The PACFA National Register of Psychotherapists and Counsellors is available to members of the general public who are seeking a psychotherapist or counsellor. The Register, unlike a membership list, includes names of individual psychotherapists and counsellors who have been accredited through their Member Association and the National Register application process. Therefore we would recommend choosing a therapist from the PACFA Register because they have obtained a significant level of training, expertise and commitment to a high standard of ethical and professional practice. It is then best to choose a therapist from under the appropriate sections listed on the PACFA website, depending on the style and modality of counselling that you think is most appropriate for you.

If you are in doubt, it is always best to either contact the Member Association that represents the style or modality you require, or contact the counsellor/psychotherapist directly
