“Registering with Frontline19 was a streamlined process and I felt very supported by the team. My first client was matched to me based on my experience. Having worked for twelve years for the NHS, it’s a privilege to be able to offer therapeutic support to an NHS frontline nurse and give something back at this time of great need.”

Requirements for Counsellors, Psychologists & Psychotherapists

Thank you for offering your services. Please proceed to the registration form if you meet the following criteria.

You understand that any agreement is between you and the client, as in any therapeutic relationship, and Frontline19.com is a matching service.

  • A recognised qualification as a counsellor, psychologist or psychotherapist
  • Capacity for clients to process painful, challenging or traumatic experiences
  • Ability to offer between 1-5 sessions per week. An hour a week can make a huge difference to someone so please do get in touch if you can spare an hour.
  • Some flexibility around session times as many people will be working shifts
  • Own public liability insurance
  • Membership of a recognised association or body, namely HCPC, BACP, UKCP, BABCP or similar (you do not need to be an accredited member)*
  • We work online and so the capability to work via Zoom, Skype, FaceTime or Phone will be needed. We can offer technical support.
  • Willingness to offer pro-bono sessions for the duration of the therapeutic relationship**
  • We offer between 8-12 sessions and consider this short-term work

FAQs

Your registration will be sent to our therapist support coordinator. We will complete your verification process and if you meet our requirements you’ll receive an email and your account will be approved.  

We are a small busy team and once your account has been approved, it can take up to 7 days, for you to receive details of your first referral. This is dependent on if we have a waiting list or not. 

No, we need all our therapists to be open to working with any NHS or frontline worker who needs support.  

These things sometimes happen and want to support you too, so please let us know if it really isn’t working and we can assign your client to a different therapist. We can then look at sending you a new referral.  

Yes, we do! We want to support you as much as we can and when you joining Frontline19 as a volunteer you are part of the team. We have some amazing Supervisors and also facilitate peer group supervision as well as good CPD opportunities.

Please email contact@frontline19.com for more details. 

We totally understand that you just need to let us know.
