Private treatment


Guest Peony

Recommended Posts

Hi all

I've posted this on the general forum but I'm not sure how to transfer it to this one.

Anyway, I'm a mental health professional working in NHS commissioning which makes it very difficult for me to access treatment in my area. I know that we can ask for private treatment and I can ask to be a hidden patient because of this.

I just need to understand better what is out there for me to access, can anyone help me?

Thanks

In seeking private treatment you should find a therapist via the BABCP register

Shoot me a message Peony and I will happily give you some names. To be honest, the BABCP is a good guideline for finding generic CBT therapists, but I do like to remind people that accreditation to the BABCP only means they have to attend x hours of workshops a year, with no exam to pass to reflect knowledge. Most of the OCD specialists I work with that are private actually don't register with the BABCP, but actually run the workshops most accredited BABCP therapists attend.
