UUAP and EAP were pleased to held a Symposium on Psychotherapy Ethics on Friday February 24th 2023, which is the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine. The main theme for the first event was "The Ethical Challenges for Psychotherapists in our Changing World".
It was a moving, extraordinary, and wonderful event, and more than 1000 Psychotherapists registered to join it.
This was a free event open to Psychotherapists. The Symposium was taking place on a sensitive date and during a time of violent conflict, which inevitably added to the challenges presented for the Symposium discourse. This event was built on the World Council for Psychotherapy Statement regarding the invasion of Ukraine, which was adopted by EAP.
All participants of the symposium unequivocally supported the statement of the World Council of Psychotherapy.
