The Pre-Therapy International Network (PTIN) launched pre-therapy.com.

This website intends to globally connect all people interested in Pre-Therapy and Contact Work. The participants of 10 PTIN meetings in Ghent, Belgium have contributed financially to the development of this website.

Mathias Dekeyser, Carl Adams and Dion Van Werde, all three members of VVCEPC and the Network, developed the site and could profit from earlier learnings from the technically similar VVCEPC-site.

In time we hope to offer pre-therapy.com in multiple languages. Additionally, once we have enough users and funding, you will be able to start online communities within the pre-therapy.com domain.
