The Partnership of Counselling and Psychotherapy Bodies (PCPB) has reached a significant milestone in its collective work, with all six partners having now fully implemented the SCoPEd framework.

The Commission for the Future of Counselling and Psychotherapy held its second evidence session online on Tuesday 2 December focusing on ‘Is there a case for statutory regulation?’. Commissioners and invited expert witnesses reviewed the adequacy of the current regulatory mechanisms for the professions in protecting clients and explored alternative models and the underpinning principles of statutory enhancement.

In October 2025, the Partnership of Counselling and Psychotherapy Bodies (PCPB) established an independently chaired Commission for the Future of Counselling and Psychotherapy.
