Introduction to SPCP
The School of Psychotherapy and Counselling Psychology
at Regent's College is located in the extensive grounds of
Regent's Park, in Central London.
SPCP
has existed in its current form since 1990, but it grew out of an
innovative Masters programme in humanistic psychology which was
established in 1977 and accredited by Antioch University, USA.
The MA in Psychotherapy and
Counselling course obtained British validation with City
University, London, in 1991, whilst the MA in Counselling
Psychology/Post-MA Diploma in Existential Counselling Psychology
obtained validation from City University and accreditation from the
British Psychological Society from 2000. Validation by City
University for the MPhil/PhD programme was granted in 1992.
The MA/PgD in Psychotherapy and Counselling, the DCounsPsy
(Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology) and the
MPhil/PhD in Psychotherapy and Counselling Studies obtained
validation by the University of Wales in 2005.
Validation is a rigorous process of course approval during which
the course details are scrutinised by a panel of both University
staff and external advisers with appropriate professional
expertise, and represents a significant endorsement of the quality
of SPCP's training which fully meets the demanding criteria of the
UK higher education sector's Quality Assurance Agency.
