When seeking support for your mental health or emotional wellbeing, it’s important to know that the person you’re working with is trained, accountable, and held to high professional standards.

At The Walden Clinic, all clinicians are either regulated by statutory bodies such as the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council), or accredited by leading professional organisations like the British Psychological Society (BPS) or British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP).

This means:

• The clinician has completed appropriate training for their role
• Their practice is regularly reviewed and adheres to evidence-based guidelines
• They are bound by a professional code of ethics

• You have assurance of accountability if concerns ever arise

Choosing a regulated or accredited clinician ensures that the support you receive is ethical, informed, and focused on your wellbeing. It also means you’re working with someone who is committed to continuous professional development and to delivering quality care.
