It’s important to remember that while this is our policy for allowing individuals and practices onto the website, it is your responsibility to confirm that these details are still accurate before your first session.

Whichever therapist you decide to see, either ask for proof of qualifications or ask to see their registration details with their recognised professional body.

We require all of the professionals we list to inform us in the event of any changes made to qualifications, registration or insurance cover.
