Remote counsellor roles built around your life

Hope Therapy & Counselling Services has been operating since 2014. We are an Organisational Member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and work in line with the NCPS Code of Ethics and BACP Good Practice. Our team of 90+ qualified counsellors and therapists work across England — online and face-to-face — with a varied adult caseload spanning a wide range of presentations.

Associate roles with Hope Therapy are self-employed positions. You set your own availability, work flexibly around your existing commitments, and take on clients matched to your specialism and experience. We handle the enquiry, assessment, and matching process — you focus on the clinical work.

We are looking for practitioners who share our commitment to accessible, ethical, high-quality therapy. What matters is your post-qualification experience, your professional registration, and your ability to work with a diverse adult caseload both in person and online. All sessions are confidential and conducted in line with your professional body’s ethical framework. There are limited circumstances in which confidentiality may need to change — your professional body guidelines govern these, and all clients are made aware of these limits before sessions begin.

All modalities are welcomed — person-centred, integrative, CBT, psychodynamic, EMDR, solution-focused, humanistic, and others.

Clinical quality and ethical practice

Hope Therapy is an NCPS Organisational Member and operates in line with the NCPS Code of Ethics and BACP Good Practice. We expect all associates to maintain the same standards in their client work — including ongoing supervision, professional development, and transparent practice.

• All associates maintain their own supervision in line with professional body requirements
• All associates hold valid professional indemnity insurance
• Clinical oversight is provided by Ian Stockbridge — MBACP (Senior Accredited), SCoPEd Band C
• We work within an inclusive, non-judgemental framework across all areas of identity and experience
• LGBTQIA+ affirming and neurodiversity-affirming practice is expected across the team

Diversity and inclusion

We value diversity across our team and actively welcome applications from counsellors of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. A team that reflects the diversity of the clients we work with is one that serves those clients better.

A note on client referrals

We do not allocate clients arbitrarily. Each referral goes through an assessment process, and clients are matched to associates whose experience, approach, and availability suit the presenting need. You are able to decline a referral if it falls outside your competence — and we will never pressure you to take on clients you are not equipped to support.
