We value diversity and recognise that different people bring unique perspectives, ideas, knowledge, and cultures, which significantly strengthen our community. We believe that discrimination based on individual characteristics and circumstances represents a denial of opportunity for self-fulfillment. Therefore, we respect the rights of individuals, including the right to hold different views and beliefs, but we will not tolerate these differences being manifested in ways that are hostile or degrading to others.
We expect commitment and involvement from all our therapists, clients, and partners in working towards the achievement of our vision. We stand in support of all those affected and are committed to working with communities towards a more compassionate, anti-racist society and a brighter future for everyone, with no place for hate and division.
Our intent is that counselling and psychotherapy change the lives of more people because of the diversity of members and the organisation that supports them. Social justice is at the heart of our strategy, and we’re fully committed to promoting and progressing social justice in our contemporary and diverse communities. Social justice means many things to many people. For us, it’s about ensuring that anyone who needs counselling will be able to access equitable, ethical and effective practice in a safe environment.
