"ACEP is the only place where I have
found a professional group of individuals who are dedicated to improving
and enhancing the practice of energy medicine. Their challenges are
many and their courage is great in leading the way for practitioners of
healing arts to come together in a cohesive manner with a standard of
care that is impressive.”

Why join ACEP?
|
|
|
The integrative healthcare market is $57 billion and growing. More
people than ever understand the importance of the body-mind connection.
This means that adding energy psychology methods to your service
offerings can make it easier for you to attract more new clients.
Not
only that, energy psychology methods are so effective that clients are
willing to pay out-of-pocket for this service. This gives you greater
opportunities to decrease your dependence on low-fee managed care
contracts.
ACEP helps you expand your practice through these membership benefits:
- Become part of our member directory so new clients from around the world can find you
- Increase your reach by listing your workshops on our web site
- Advertise to ACEP’s 8,000+ email audience at significant member savings
- Learn business skills that help your practice thrive
|
Enhance your professionalism by aligning with ACEP’s ethical codes and guidelines for how to:
- Represent yourself as an energy psychology or energy health professional
- Make professionally legitimate claims about your services
- Develop your website and do other publicity, marketing or advertising without putting yourself at risk
When
you become a member of a larger body with standards of practice and a
code of ethics, such as ACEP, you automatically increase your
professional credibility and manage the risk of your practice more
effectively.
ACEP also offers members affordable general
liability insurance tailored to practitioners who include energy-based
methods in their work. Learn more

"It’s
phenomenal what ACEP has provided. If you want to be involved in this
work, one of the best risk management tools you can have is to become a
member of a national organization such as ACEP. They have standards of
care and an ethics code, which you, as a member, agree to abide by. From
a risk management standpoint, that’s a huge benefit if you are ever
questioned about what you are doing. You belong to an organization that
has clout and weight behind it, and that brings validity to this work.”

- When
you join ACEP, you are no longer a lone voice in an emerging field: you
become part of a vibrant collaborative community of energy psychology

psychology or similar techniques, ACEP offers ways to connect with
like-minded colleagues who are pioneering the path of helping clients

professional care

you navigate a balanced and integrated path of growth within a nurturing
professional culture

"Every
new movement needs a solid organization. If you do this kind of work on
your own, you’re very lonely and you’re subject to getting lost because
there are so many issues ethically, methodically, theoretically which
are difficult to grasp when you’re on your own. I’ve been very
enthusiastic about ACEP from the beginning.”

Global
transformation may feel too big for each of us alone, but it’s not too
big when we join together. For only 30 cents a day, ACEP helps you
achieve what none of us can do alone.
- ACEP was the first organization to develop ethical standards for energy psychology (1999)

professionalism and persistence resulted in the APA ending its 15 year
policy of preventing psychologists from getting CE credit for being
trained in energy psychology
- ACEP runs a truly world-class
annual conference that brings 500+ people together from all over the
world, and from a wide variety of scientific and clinical traditions

While you are in your office seeing clients, we are working hard to:
- Raise
awareness of energy psychology with the public, with the mental health,
public health and medical establishments, and with policy makers
- Make
energy psychology an accepted treatment modality in places like the
Veterans Administration and College Counseling offices
- Make it easier for you to receive the highest quality training in EP, and the CE credits to go along with it
- Replace
negative misinformation about energy psychology with accurate
information, by promoting research and raising professional &
ethical standards for this emerging field

"When I began teaching
energy psychology, I was doing it as one person. That has some value,
but an organization is a way of bringing people together to create more
and more of a presence. It creates a political basis as well. There’s
always some kind of politics involved in bringing something out into the
world.”
