• United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP)
  
• British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
  
• The College of Psychoanalysts-UK (CP-UK)
  
• British Psychological Society (BPS)
  
• British Association of Psychoanalytic and Psychodynamic Supervision (BAPPS)
  
• British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC)

Our members engage at different levels in clinical, academic and other activities within the private, public and voluntary sections. Many members have authored articles and books on diverse topics.

Applying For Guild Membership

The decision to offer membership of the Guild rests with Council. Trainees who have successfully completed the training may be recommended for membership to Council by the Training Committee. Applicants who have trained elsewhere can also apply for membership of the Guild and may be recommended for membership to Council provided that they have demonstrated:

• An equivalent training.
• A commitment to the ethos of the Guild.
• A willingness to contribute to the life of the organisation.
