To this end ScPTI has for several years been developing links with the community through the provision of clinical support to the employees of the borough council, commercial organisations and the local mental health services. In the next few years we intend to expand and extend the range of specialist clinical services in the region.
ScPTI
is a full member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and, therefore, provides accredited training that enables our graduates to enter the UKCP national register of professional psychotherapists. ScPTI is also a member
of the United Kingdom and European Association for Psychotherapeutic Counselling (UKEAPC) and several European associations. We are guided in our professional development by these organisations.
