ISTDP World Map

In late summer 2024, the ISTDP community compiled a global directory of over 100 ISTDP organizations, including research hubs, private practices, hospitals, professional associations, and training centers across 23 countries. While our reach is substantial, certain challenges persist – particularly in accurately capturing research hubs.

Below, explore the ISTDP organizations gathered by the community. Click on any pin for details about each organization. If you have suggestions to improve our methodology, ideas for the next ISTDP World Map, spot any inaccuracies, or wish to support future data collection efforts, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

For your convenience, a PDF version of the map is available, providing an overview of the number of therapists by country as of 2024. Simply click on the image below to access a downloadable PDF file.
