What it does

  1. Training4

    Structured courses: an Immersion first, then Essential Skills, Advanced Skills modules and seminars.

  2. Certification5

    Therapists who complete training and show effective use of the model can become AEDP Institute Certified; supervisors are certified too.

  3. Research1

    Its research project has studied AEDP in private practice, including 6- and 12-month follow-ups.

  4. Ethos2

    "To exist in each other's hearts and minds": a healing orientation, openness and rigorous attention to experience.

  5. Just "AEDP" now4

    Fosha named it Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy in 2000; the Institute now says the long name no longer fits and uses AEDP.
