Free Associations

From the WCSPP community

Our blog’s title is Free Associations because that is what we hope you’ll do. We are an eclectic institute, where many schools of thought are taught. The reflections you will see represent who we are, a diverse community of independent thinkers.

We invite you to scroll down and get to know some of the therapists in our community. We hope that you will find the articles thought-provoking and that they inspire you to learn more about the many ways to engage with WCSPP.
