as well as in the international accreditation bodies:
and therefore, we endorse their certification criteria. Thus, our training programs are recognized by all these accrediting bodies. Moreover the training program in rational-emotive & cognitive-behavioral psychotherapies is also certified by the Albert Ellis Institute, New York, USA whereas the training program in cognitive therapy is accredited (as the first phase application) by the Academy of Cognitive Therapy, USA.
