Values
We believe that:
mental distress has its origin in failed and inadequate
attachment relationships in early life and is best treated
in the context of a long-term human relationship.
attachment relationships are shaped in the real world and
impacted upon by poverty, discrimination and social inequality.
The impact of the social world will be part of the therapy.
psychotherapy should be available to all, and from an attachment-based
psychoanalytic perspective, especially those discriminated
against or described as “unsuitable” for therapy.
psychotherapy should be provided with respect, warmth, openness,
a readiness to interact and relate, and free from discrimination
of any kind.
those who have been silenced about their experiences and
survival strategies must have their reality acknowledged
and not pathologised.
CAPP values inclusiveness, access, diversity, authenticity
and excellence.
