Some ACC counsellors/psychotherapists will choose not to be on Find a counsellor, but all will be on ACC’s register. Some counsellors will have “accredited practitioner” “accredited” or “senior accredited” by their name which means that they will have applied for and been awarded an advanced qualification with ACC based on further knowledge and experience. These titles represent professional advancement/progression. For further information about accreditation and what each level represents, visit this page.
