Question: What does „free profession" mean? How can this term be clearly defined under the European legislation?
Answer: „Free profession" means, that the profession of psychotherapy has to be in that way defined as other free professions are, like lawyers, accountants, medical doctors. It means, that the psychotherapist has to bare the full responsability in his professional activities, not being „guided" by other professions. The free professions are fully recognized in the European Union and are organized European-wide in „SEPLIS". There is also a world wide organisation of free professions, in which the WCP is one of the members (Delegate: Dr. Tordjmann, member of EAP and WCP).
