Hi everyone, I am a psychology graduate (albeit 10 years ago!) looking to pivot into what I have truly always wanted to do, counselling. My partner (who is from the USA) and I want to move to the States in the next few years, but I want to crack on with a Masters in Counselling / Mental Health Psychology / Psychotherapy here in the UK so I can hopefully have completed it by the time we leave, where I could then hopefully progress with getting supervised hours under my belt towards my LPC qualification.

We want to move to Colorado, so in order to start the process towards my LPC qualifications, I need a Masters programme that is CACREP accredited. As there are no CACREP accredited Masters in the UK, does anyone know any Masters here in the UK that are sufficient? I know the process is to complete the Masters and then have it validated by a 3rd party to prove it is up to CACREP standard, but it seems rather tricky finding out which Masters from which Universities would qualify.

Any help would be hugely appreciated! I guess this would apply to any person who has studied a non-CACREP accredited course and then gone on to complete their LPC qualifications in the USA. TIA!
