Whether you’re a qualified family and systemic psychotherapist, psychotherapy student or another health professional interested in systemic practice, Association for Family and Systemic Psychotherapy (AFSP) membership offers huge benefits.

Membership is open to anyone from the UK or overseas interested in the field. Joining us will enhance your skills and knowledge and keep you up to date with developments in systemic thinking. You’ll join a thriving, diverse, multi-disciplinary community you can connect with and learn from.

It’s also your chance to make your voice heard. Together, we’ll work to influence decision-making in the NHS and statutory services, highlighting the huge positive impact that family and systemic therapy has on people’s lives.
