Join The Social Counselling Collective….
We welcome membership from anyone, from any background, who shares our vision for accessible counselling and our social justice perspective. The full statement of our values can be found in the Governing Principles of The Social Counselling Collective document. We are particularly keen to welcome people who have used any type of mental health service in the past, as service user experience is under used within counselling practice at the moment.
Membership allows you to:
Attend practice development meetings: These monthly meetings are held to help us work out the details of our proposed “Social Counselling Model” – the nitty-gritty of how we do what we do.

What makes Social Counselling different from counselling in traditional settings?
What are the ethics of Social Counselling?
What are the unifying ideas, when we all approach the work from our unique positions?
