A credential that fits around your work

Every certification adds one working skill to the job you already do. Self-paced, so study fits around full-time work. Assessed, so what you add is something you can show.

Coaches and practitioners

Add structured mental wellbeing methods, and a clear scope of practice, to the sessions you already run.

Teachers and school staff

Learn classroom-ready ways to spot a struggling student, respond within your role, and refer on.

HR and people teams

Bring stress and burnout practice into the wellbeing programme your organisation already runs.

Psychology students and graduates

Add applied, assessed practice to a theoretical degree. Graduate with something specific you can describe in an interview.

Moving into the field

Bring what you already do well into wellbeing work, and finish with an assessed, numbered credential.

Everyone else

Managers, parents, community workers, volunteers. If people bring you their problems, there is a certification for that.

Study hours are published on every certification page before you pay, so you can weigh the commitment against the week you actually have. See the full catalogue

Every certificate we issue is on a public register.

Each certificate carries a unique number. Anyone holding that number, a client, an employer, a school, can look it up and see the record. No login, no fee, no waiting on us to confirm it by email.

The record shows the holder's name, the certification, the issue date, and whether it is still valid. Certificates are valid for 4 years from issue.

Questions worth asking of any certification body.

Therapy Council publishes what its programmes teach, requires assessment before certification, and issues numbered credentials that can be checked without contacting us.

How Therapy Council works
What is Therapy Council?

An independent private certification body for mental wellbeing practice. We provide self-paced professional education, assess every learner, and issue a numbered certificate only once the assessment is passed. We are not a licensing or statutory regulatory body. About Therapy Council

What does a Therapy Council certification verify?

That the named holder completed a specific programme and passed its assessment. The register record shows the holder's name, certification title, certificate number, issue date and current status, so clients, employers and schools can check the credential directly.

Who are these certifications for?

Coaches and practitioners, teachers and school staff, HR and learning teams, students, and people moving into wellbeing work. No clinical degree is required to begin. Licensed clinicians should check with their own board whether a programme counts toward renewal. Browse certifications

How does this help me upskill?

Each programme adds one working skill to a job you already do rather than replacing a degree. Modules teach applied practice, ethics and scope. The assessment checks you can use it. The numbered certificate gives you something to show a client, a school or an employer. Browse certifications

How does Therapy Council assess learners?

Assessment is part of the programme, not a reward for watching lessons. Applied case work runs through the modules and each programme ends with a graded assessment. A certificate is issued only on a pass.

How can someone verify a certificate?

Enter the certificate number on the public register. The check is free, needs no account, and does not require anyone to contact us. Verify a certificate

Is this a professional licence?

No. A certification records training completed and an assessment passed. It does not grant a licence to practise, replace a regulated qualification, or permit use of a protected title. Local laws and professional bodies remain the authority for regulated practice.

How long does a certification take, and what does it cost?

Programmes are self-paced, with no cohort dates or live sessions. Total study hours and current price are published on every certification page before you enrol. Course material stays available after you finish.

How long is a certificate valid?

Four years from the issue date. To stay certified after that, you sit the current assessment again. A live register record means the holder is current, not that they passed once years ago.
