About
BCS was founded in 1985 by a small group of local therapists wanting to provide mental health support to the local community. Since then, the Service has flourished to become a busy, vibrant counselling and training centre, managed by a talented team of clinical and non-clinical staff, dedicated to improving the emotional wellbeing of our community.
We achieve this in two ways. Firstly, we offer one-to-one and couples counselling for adults, via a team of counsellors who provide a professional and affordable service. Our counsellors are supervised and practise within the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.
Secondly, we provide a range of training courses for those interested in supporting others with mental health difficulties. We have a long heritage of running highly regarded courses from one-day personal development workshops through to a three-year BACP Accredited Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling.
This is an exciting time for BCS as we are experiencing a sustained period of growth. Based in central Basingstoke, BCS is a registered charity and has a staff of11. The number of students has grown over the last few years and now stands at 80+. There are typically 150 clients seen on a weekly basis. Consistent with its recent and projected growth, the Service is looking to supplement the number of Trustees.
