What is APPWA

APPWA is a multi-disciplinary body of psychotherapists with advanced training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. APPWA seeks to promote and support the highest possible standards of clinical practice, training, and ethics in psychoanalytic psychotherapy in Western Australia and, to this end, provides continuing education and supervision for practicing psychotherapists, a forum for clinical discussion, and training in the practice of psychotherapy.

The association is affiliated with the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Association of Australasia (PPAA), a national body that oversees the standards and conduct of, as well as training in, psychoanalytic psychotherapy in Australasia.

The PPAA

The PPAA is a national federation of psychotherapy organisations whose members are trained and qualified psychoanalytic psychotherapists. These psychotherapists come from a variety of relevant professions and have undergone further specialised training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy.

The PPAA has state member organisations in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, and New Zealand.

The objective of the PPAA is to maintain high standards of practice, training, and ethics in psychoanalytic psychotherapy throughout Australia and New Zealand, and to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and information about psychotherapy.
