Play Therapy International (PTI) has removed the affiliation of Play Therapy Africa (PTA), whose operations are based in Ethiopia. PTA can no longer accredit any play therapy or
filial play coaching courses, formerly delivered by APAC, nor make any awards in PTI’s name . Monika Jephcott and Jeff Thomas have resigned as Directors of Play Therapy Africa
and have no responsibility for the conduct of its affairs. Neither PTI, nor its Directors have been involved in any funding applications made by PTA since March 2009.
Any existing practitioner members of PTA, who have successfully completed the training delivered by APAC and funded by UNICEF, may transfer their membership to PTI,
without charge. Please contact
