Continuation of the Academic Path
The Academy of Psychotherapy and Logotherapy also enables its graduates to pursue further academic development at the doctoral level in cooperation with an international partner faculty.
The specialist master’s program represents an in-depth professional and research-oriented formation that includes theoretical education, clinical practice, supervision, personal development of the therapist, and research work.

Ph.D. – Doctor of Philosophy
The highest academic research degree, intended for in-depth research, the development of new scientific knowledge, and contributions to the advancement of psychotherapy, logotherapy, counseling, and related fields.
