Directing Your Own Support: A User's Guide to Self Directed Support in Scotland
Counselling Directory provides the UK with a huge counselling support network, enabling those in distress to find a counsellor close to them and appropriate for their needs. This is a free, confidential service. The website also contains a number of sections on emotional disorders (types of distress section) and provides some useful statistics. Every counsellor on the site who has submitted their profile has either sent a copy of their qualifications and insurance cover to Counselling Directory, or is registered with a professional body online with recognised codes of ethics and practice.
We are currently working on this section of the wesbite. Please bear with us while we add more information... |
