If you are a psychiatrist, psychologist, registered counsellor, occupational therapist or nurse, you need to be registered with the Health Professionals Council of South Africa (HPCSA).


If you are a social worker, you need to be registered with the South African Council for Social Service Professions (SACSSP).


If you are a counsellor, you need to be registered with the Association for supportive counsellors and holistic practitioners (ASCHP) or the Council for Counsellors South Africa (C4CSA).
