Thorough assessment of background, training, and professional reputation within the mental health community.
Ethical practice and business standards
All therapists must demonstrate adherence to professional ethical codes and maintain ethical business practices.
Continuous quality assurance
Regular review of client feedback and professional development to maintain consistent excellence.
