Association for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the NHS Established in 1981, the APP is an organisation formed to advance the practice of psychoanalytic psychotherapy in the National Health Service and other Public Services. The APP achieves its aims by helping to co-ordinate activities and educational facilities for psychoanalytic psychotherapists working in the NHS and other Public Services but it is not a training organisation, and membership of APP does not confer qualification to work in the NHS as a psychotherapist. The APP represents members' views in the NHS and other public services to encourage the development of a psychodynamic perspective in these settings.

The Parent Infant Centre At the Parent Infant Centre we are concerned with the development and mental health of infants and young children. We want each child to have the very best start in life. We have a particular specialism in autism spectrum disorders and the early detection of pre-autism behaviours, for some children as early as three months. As well as providing treatment in our London-based Clinic, we have also developed the School of Infant Mental Health, so that we can reach an even greater number of children by training other professionals to use our approach.
The Parent Infant Clinic is a private clinic, based in London, that provides a range of help to parents and their young children. Following a careful assessment, the Clinic provides interventions that are especially designed for each individual child. We also train health visitors and paediatricians to identify the early signs of alarm, signs that parents are often the first to see.
Our School of Infant Mental Health trains professionals to work intensively with parents and their child to support the child's early development. The School offers a training in Parent Infant Psychotherapy that is recognised by the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy. The School offers several other short courses, and organises conferences and seminars, both in the UK and overseas.
The Parent Infant Centre is also associated with the charity ipAn - the International Pre-Autism Network. ipAn aims to increase awareness of autism and to promote early identification and treatment. The charity also raises funds to help meet the costs of treatment.
