SCS Counsellors and Psychotherapists
We have set out below some brief details of some of our counsellors and psychotherapists. The information is intended to give you an indication of the wide variety of therapeutic experience and broad range of training which SCS offers. We insist that our counsellors are trained to at least degree level and psychotherapists to postgraduate degree standard at a recognised university specializing in psychogenic therapeutic education. All counsellors and psychotherapists have been carefully selected and chosen for their personal and life experience maturity, and their proven record of professionalism.
