What ICPHAA accreditation means
ICPHAA is the Irish Counselling, Psychotherapy & Allied Healthcare Professionals Association. Accredited members have provided evidence of their qualifications, supervised client practice and ongoing clinical supervision, hold professional indemnity insurance and work within the Association's standards and ethics. Pre-accredited and student members are identified as such in their listings.
Frequently asked questions
Are counsellors and psychotherapists in Ireland regulated by law?
Statutory regulation of counsellors and psychotherapists by CORU is in progress, but at the time of writing (November 2026) the registers have not yet opened and the titles are not yet protected in law. Until they are, accreditation by a professional body such as ICPHAA is the main assurance that a practitioner has met recognised standards and works to a code of ethics.
How do I check that a practitioner is an ICPHAA member?
Enter their membership number (for example M1234) on the ICPHAA verification page at icphaa.ie/verify-certificate, or scan the QR code on their certificate or badge. The page shows the member's name, membership category and current status.
Do I need a GP referral to see a counsellor?
No. You can contact an ICPHAA member directly. If you are in crisis or at immediate risk, contact emergency services on 112 or 999, your GP or your local emergency department.
