| About
| The International Federation for Psychotherapy [IFP] is an organization of national, regional, and school-oriented psychotherapy societies. Its goals are to facilitate and promote international communication among the various schools, professional groups and cultures within psychotherapy.
The IFP organizes international congresses and conferences on psychotherapy. The IFP promotes the development of psychotherapy in practice, teaching and research and encourages and supports appropriate standards in the practice of psychotherapy.
Historically, today's IFP evolved from the International General Medical Society for Psychotherapy [IGMSP] established in 1935 and then re-established as the International Federation for Medical Psychotherapy [IFMP] in 1954. The original objective of the federation was to promote psychotherapy within the field of medicine. However, in the mean time psychotherapy has come to include a wide field of professions both scientifically and in practice. Correspondingly, the objectives of the IFP have been extended and in 1991 the federation was renamed International Federation for Psychotherapy.
