| Description | The free spirit of integrative movements which overcomes the artificial borders between psychotherapy approaches brings also the risk of having no borders at all. Many things can be integrated in psychotherapy, but how do we know, that it makes sense, that it works for the clients, that it fulfills the good practice standards? Society for the Exploration of Psychotherapy Integration (SEPI) adopts free and respectfully open approach to different ways of integration is balanced with practice honestly reflected in the light of theory and research. Another tradition for keeping the quality standards in the psychotherapy integration movement is represented by the European Association for Integrative Psychotherapy (EAIP). This organization tries to keep two tasks: First, under the umbrella of the European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP), it accredits training institutes and individuals according to commonly shared standards of the training content, teaching methods, and quality evaluation. Second, it offers a platform for integrative psychotherapists for meeting and inspiring each other, mainly by organizing regular conferences. The 9th EAIP conference will take place in Prague under the auspices of the Charles University in Prague. |
