Membership Application

The Rochester Area Group Psychotherapy Society (RAGPS) is a community-based professional organization devoted to providing a forum for the expression of ideas and sharing of knowledge related to the theory and practice of group psychotherapy. RAGPS is an affiliate of the American Group Psychotherapy Association. The organization was developed locally by clinicians wanting a place to voice their ideas about group therapy. Our membership is multi-disciplinary and includes psychiatrists, psychologists, counselors, nurses, creative arts therapists, social workers, and drug and alcohol counselors. We look forward toward your membership, and are available to answer your questions. Read on, and learn more about the range of opportunities offered by RAGPS.
