Association of Orthodox Jewish Psychologists

AOJP is a community of Orthodox Jewish psychologists and psychology doctoral students who provide support, knowledge, and resources to each other, the Orthodox Jewish community, and other mental health professionals. We believe that everyone deserves access to good mental healthcare and should have accurate information about psychology and mental health.
