Certification Alignment Pathway (CAP)

Already certified with another professional body? The Certification Alignment Pathway (CAP) offers you a direct route to become certified through the International Association of Psychosexual Therapists (IAPST).

This pathway is designed to ensure that practitioners from diverse backgrounds are aligned with IAPST’s rigorous standards, ethical framework, and professional conduct. By completing the CAP, you not only strengthen your foundation in psychosexual therapy, but also gain access to the benefits of IAPST certification—global recognition, professional networking, and continued opportunities for growth.

What the CAP Includes

The CAP certificate, offered through the School of Sex Therapy, consists of five specialized courses. Each course provides 5 Continuing Education (CE) credits and combines 3 hours of live instruction with 2 hours of supplemental study material.

You’ll explore critical topics that bridge theory and practice, ensuring you are fully equipped to meet IAPST standards:

  • Ethical Theory for Psychosexual Therapy

  • Applied Clinical Ethics in Sex Therapy Practice

  • Contraception and STI Prevention in Clinical Sex Therapy

  • The Role of the Pelvic Floor in Sexual Health

  • Pharmacology and Psychosexual Therapy

How It Works

  1. Enroll in the five-course CAP program through the School of Sex Therapy.

  2. Complete all coursework and receive your CAP certificate.

  3. Submit your certification application to IAPST along with proof of prior certification and your CAP certificate.

  4. Once approved, you will be awarded IAPST certification.

The Certification Alignment Pathway is your opportunity to seamlessly integrate your prior credentials into the IAPST framework—strengthening your practice, expanding your recognition, and joining an international community of psychosexual therapy professionals.
