EAP Ethics Committee Annual Meeting 2025

On October 16, 2025, the annual meeting of the EAP Ethics Committee of the European Association for Psychotherapy was held in Prague.
Anano Niauri, Legal Advisor to the International Academy of Mental Health and Integrated Psychotherapy, participated in the meeting as Co-Chair of the EAP Ethics Committee.

The committee discussed the latest challenges in the field of psychotherapy and mechanisms for responding to them, including the relationship between the use of artificial intelligence in the field of psychotherapy and ethical standards. Taking these challenges into account, the committee discussed amendments and additions to the Code of Ethics for Psychotherapists.

The committee was presented with a draft version of the European Association's new guideline, "Ethics Guidelines for Organizations," which was developed by a working group consisting of Courtney Young, Enver Tsekko, Anano Niauri, Jose Castillo, and Maria Cardini.
