The Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy is a non-profit organization dedicated to the education and training of mental health professionals in the integration of mindfulness meditation and psychotherapy. Mindfulness is at the heart of Buddhist psychology. The ancient, contemplative tradition of Buddhist psychology is currently converging with the Western, scientific model of psychological inquiry, resulting in innovative advances in psychotherapy theory and practice. Educational programs sponsored by IMP are designed to foster the investigation of mindfulness for enhancing the therapy relationship, clinical interventions, and the well-being of the therapist.
