Attend, learn and contribute to providing free therapy for those who can't afford it.
Hi, I’m Ana, I’m thrilled to welcome you to Therapy in Action, a project very close to my heart.
For the past 5 years, I’ve been leading an initiative called ‘Free Sessions During the Holidays,’ where an amazing group of generous psychotherapists come together each year to offer free therapy to those who need it the most. What started small has now grown into a community of over 200 volunteer therapists, providing more than 2000 free sessions.
Your feedback has been inspiring, and I’ve listened. You’ve told us we can do even more:
Reach more people with better marketing.
Create more opportunities for free sessions throughout the year.
That’s why I’ve created Therapy in Action - a project designed to help us raise the funds we need to continue growing, expanding, and offering free therapy to even more people. But more than that, it’s about building a community where we can come together to learn, grow, and support one another.
Therapy in Action provides affordable workshops, lectures, and resources led by some of the brightest minds in mental health and psychotherapy. Whether you’re a therapist, coach, or someone passionate about mental health, our experts will offer insights that can transform your life and practice.
Topic: Working with Resistance in Psychotherapy
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Aleksandar Dimitrijević, Interim Professor at International Psychoanalytic University Berlin
Date: October 5th, 11 AM CET (Online)
No matter how motivated someone may be, or how intense their suffering, there will always be some form of resistance to the changes that psychotherapy encourages. At first glance, this seems paradoxical. Despite a desire for healing, ambivalence is a natural part of the process, and it becomes especially noticeable in therapeutic settings.
But how do we recognize these resistances? How can we work through them? How do we avoid overlooking or neglecting them? And how can we become more aware of how they affect us as therapists?
Prof. Dimitrijević will guide us through understanding and navigating these challenges, sharing practical strategies to work with resistance (and not against it).
Aleksandar Dimitrijevic, PhD, is interim professor of psychoanalysis and clinical psychology at the International Psychoanalytic University, Berlin, Germany. He is a member of the Belgrade Psychoanalytical Society (IPA) and Faculty at the Serbian Association of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists (EFPP), and the editor or co-editor of ten books or special journal issues, as well as author of many conceptual and empirical papers, about attachment theory and research, psychoanalytic education, psychoanalysis and the arts.
Through Therapy in Action, we’re creating opportunities for everyone, no matter where they are, to gain access to knowledge from leading experts. And at the same time, all funds raised go directly to making mental health support available to those who need it most - because no one should have to face their toughest moments alone.
We want more people to receive free therapy sessions during the holidays.
We want everyone interested in psychotherapy to have the chance to learn from incredible experts - people they might not have had access to otherwise.
We believe that together, we can make mental health support and resources more affordable and accessible for all.
When you attend or purchase one of our expert-led lectures, you’re doing more than just gaining knowledge - you’re joining a movement. Every ticket, every lecture, and every conversation helps us provide free therapy sessions for those who need it most during difficult times of the year.
Practical, Actionable Tools: Whether you’re a therapist, a coach, or someone passionate about mental health, our lectures will give you skills and knowledge you can start applying right away.
Affordable and Accessible: We’ve kept pricing low to ensure that as many people as possible can benefit. You can attend live, interact with the experts, or watch the recordings at your own pace - no matter where you are in the world.
By joining Therapy in Action, you’re not just a participant - you’re part of a community. A community that believes in the power of kindness, empathy, and solidarity.
Together, we can make sure that more people feel seen, heard, and supported when it matters the most. Your participation will truly make a difference.
