The National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and the National Hypnotherapy Society (HS) are not for profit professional organisations whose purpose is to ensure that all of their registrants are safe, competent and ethical practitioners. We refer to them as ‘the Societies.’

In October 2024, we completed our full renewal assessment for the Societies, at which time, the Accreditation Panel decided to renew the Societies accreditation subject to the below conditions. We will update the status of these conditions in due course. 

Conditions                                                                                                                  

Standard 2

• The NCPS must make it clearer that the Coaching sub-register is not accredited by the PSA.  (3 months)
• The NCPS/HS must formally develop a registration appeals process and publish this on their website so that it is easily accessible to those who may wish to engage with the appeals process.  (3 months)

Standard 6

• The NCPS/HS must develop a policy for managing conflicts of interest. (6 months)
• The NCPS/HS must develop a robust business continuity policy to ensure it can mitigate any threats to regular business practices. (12 months)
• The NCPS/HS must develop a policy in which they formalise their organisational risk management processes. (6 months).
