I am an Associate Fellow with British Psychological Society (BPS). The BPS is the representative body for Clinical Psychology in the United Kingdom. The society operates a Register of Chartered Psychologists who are required to meet the highest standard of psychological knowledge and expertise. Chartered Psychologists have to update their knowledge and training to continue to meet the required standards. I am also a Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) registered Clinical Psychologist. HCPC is the regulatory body set up under the authority of parliament to protect the public. Clinical Psychologists must meet HCPC standards for training, professional skills and behaviour.
