The Child Psychotherapy Council, or CPC, represents the profession of child psychotherapy across all modalities in the UK and beyond. We are dedicated to the advancement of child psychotherapy as a distinct profession within the field of child and adolescent mental health. 

As a registered charity, the Child Psychotherapy Council engages with practitioners, training organisations, regulators, policy makers, statutory and non-statutory mental health organisations for children, young people, families and the general public. 

Our goal is to promote and maintain the highest standards of psychotherapeutic services for children and young people. Ensuring that only the highest quality, most developmentally appropriate mental health services are offered to children and their families – both privately and in the public sector.

Would you like to be part of our team?

This is an exciting opportunity to actively contribute to the continued development of the Child Psychotherapy Council by joining one of our committees.

We are a charity created by a team with a shared vision to build a home and community for child psychotherapy professionals. We are currently looking for volunteers to join the Communications and Ethics committees.

If you would like to be a part of this collaborative project, we encourage you to get in touch. Previous volunteer experience is a plus but not essential.
