The start of a vital campaign
UKCP is taking its stand on an issue that goes to the heart of psychotherapy's and psychotherapeutic counselling's ability to contribute to the wellbeing of the people of the UK.
We are here to promote the wider provision of psychotherapy for the public benefit because everyday we see evidence of the huge benefits that psychotherapy can provide.
To us the NICE Guidelines are one of a series of activities that increasingly and cumulatively get in the way of that happening. Even if you do no work within the NHS, you will be affected.
Please read on. Then open up Word and write.
Let NICE know that we mean business.
