Background statement:
In January 2024 the Psychotherapy and Counselling Union (PCU) Scotland Branch co-hosted an event with the Counselling unit at Strathclyde University. The event intended to raise awareness of two significant initiatives; SCoPEd (Scope of Practice and Education for Counselling and Psychotherapy Framework, adopted by its six Membership Body signatory partners in February 2023), and the Scottish Government’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy, that will shape the future of the counselling and psychotherapy profession and the landscape in which services are provided in Scotland. The event in January was a first step in starting a conversation amongst practitioners, towards us having a say in what that future looks like. PCU Scotland branch are working with academics across Scotland to gather the thoughts and experiences of anyone studying and working in the field, to establish the current landscape in the psychotherapy and counselling profession in Scotland, to generate a wider discussion that will inform a vision for the future of the profession by those working in it.
This consultation phase will culminate in an event on 2nd November that hopes to bring the profession together, to generate a vision, a common position and vision for the future of the profession that we can campaign for.
Event: “Vision for the Future of Psychotherapy and Counselling in Scotland”.
Date: 2nd November 2024
