Qualified, regulated therapist and coach in London, Guildford, Surrey and online

How to find a qualified, regulated therapist or coach?

In the UK, therapists and coaches can work without any specific training, regulation or licence.

However, we think these things are important.

We always recommend checking qualifications and regulation before starting work.

A good place to start is CNHC, we the UK government uses to provide a voluntary register for Complimentary and Natural Healthcare, where members must demonstrate specific standards and knowledge.
