The European Society for Trauma and Dissociation was funded in April 2006. This followed a period of active planning and collaboration with professional colleagues from over 17 countries in Europe as well as with the Executive Council of the International Society for Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD).
The establishement of the European Society for trauma and Dissociation (ESTD) was strongly supported by the ISSTD with whom we have close ties.
