Background

Critical Therapy Antidote was established in 2020 in response to a growing sense that something within the field of therapy was shifting – often subtly, but with meaningful implications for clinical work. We set up an associated CTA Network bringing together an international community of over 140 clinicians and trainees to promote active dialogue.

In 2026, due to its expansion, CTA separated into two distinct organisations. CTA, based in the UK, has become the legacy organisation with the mission to continue to disseminate news and information relevant to the politicisation of professional therapy. Our sister organisation based in the US, the Center for Therapeutic Advancement, has a wider remit which includes actively developing the international professional community.

What is happening to the CTA Network?

Our original subscription-based CTA Network will be closing down on 1st May 2027. Consequently, we are no longer admitting new members to the network.

We would encourage anyone seeking the following opportunities to:

  • Share clinical reflections and challenges
  • Engage in thoughtful, good-faith discussion
  • Connect across disciplines and perspectives

to explore the new professional network set up on our sister organisation, the Center for Therapeutic Advancement.
