Cognitive Analytic Therapy developed in the UK but it has been adopted and developed in many countries around the world.

ICATA – the International Association for Cognitive Analytic Therapy – helps to connect CAT therapists globally.

ICATA’s website contains links to information about CAT and CAT training in a number of countries.  Not all member countries have a formal association but ICATA acts as a global network.
