About us
Who we are
We are the leading professional association and a Professional Standards Authority Voluntary Accredited Register for the psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy profession in the UK.
With a small team of ten, based at our offices in North London, and with an annual turnover of c£600k we regulate the profession, adjudicate on complaints, and maintain professional standards.
We enjoy a reputation for high clinical and professional standards within the counselling and psychotherapy profession and, unlike other similar organisations, we are purely psychoanalytic in our focus. We accredit training programmes operated via our Member Institutions, ensuring that they meet our exacting standards. Individuals who qualify from these accredited trainings are eligible to become Registrants of the BPC and appear on our public Register. Registrants must comply with our code of ethics and Continuing Professional Development requirements.
As well as our regulatory role, we advance the knowledge and understanding about psychoanalysis and psychoanalytically informed therapies, through working with policy makers and through conferences, publications and other activities.
