    Hi,

    I am a psychotherapist currently doing an online psychology conversion MSc with Derby University.

    Can anyone tell me if they know how to apply for chartered status as a counselling psychologist without having to do the Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology in Trinity?

    The PSI won't entertain my queries until I have my psychology degree so I will get back to them in 18 months when I have completed my course.

    I had heard of someone who already had the MSc in Counselling Psychology going to DCU to complete the Doctorate in Psychotherapy and that was deemed an equivalent.

    I am wondering if I could do the same - the doctorate in DCU. But perhaps that would still not be sufficient?

    if anyone has any experience of this I'd be grateful….
