Goals of the Experiential Psychotherapy Institute:

to increase awareness of experiential psychotherapy among the worldwide community of therapists and coaches
to cross-pollinate ideas and techniques between practitioners of like-minded experiential schools
to introduce experiential modalities and techniques to practitioners who have not worked experientially before
to direct practitioners towards in-person trainings through the official organizations representing each school.

Which therapies are included:

A range of experiential psychotherapies fit the criteria for inclusion on this site. In fact, there are so many amazing experiential schools that there will are likely to always be more that are not represented here than those that are. The list of included therapies will continue to grow as additional schools of therapy are brought to our attention and as new ones are developed.

We will constantly seek out additional video tutorials on each experiential school but if you are aware of video resources that you feel should included for a particular therapy, please contact us and let us know.
