ES · MX · AR

Foundations

International

By country

Funding available in your region.

Grant calls, bodies and foundations by geography. Tap each country to see the details.

ES Spain

National, regional and professional-body grant calls combine with employer-based funding. For employed professionals, the FUNDAE subsidy allows companies to deduct training costs from Social Security contributions, covering all or part of continuing clinical education programmes.

Some local authorities and regional governments publish grants for continuing healthcare education, with particular attention to projects benefiting vulnerable populations. Professional associations may offer targeted support for courses with clinical supervision. Foundations also exist that fund mental health specialisation, prioritising social impact and academic excellence.

MX Mexico

Options include government support programmes for postgraduate and specialist training, as well as foundations that co-fund professional studies. Bodies such as FIDERH (Banco de México) and FUNED have historically supported postgraduate education through soft loans and supplementary grants; eligibility requirements and application deadlines should be checked directly.

In addition, some state health secretariats and public hospitals fund continuing education when a return plan that strengthens local services is in place. Private companies, particularly in human resources and workplace wellbeing, co-fund training with an impact on psychosocial risk prevention.

AR Argentina

Ministries, provincial governments and universities offer professional development and continuing education grants. Hospitals, social health funds and mental health organisations frequently allocate budgets for training with clinical supervision, particularly in trauma, addictions and primary care.

Foundations dedicated to education and health publish calls for professionals with a clinical track record and commitment to the public health system. They commonly require a community transfer project or measurable outcomes in the service.

· International and online

For programmes delivered from Europe and the Americas, mobility grants and tuition co-funding are available through Ibero-American foundations. High-level online programmes help reduce logistical costs and fit around clinical practice, opening doors to partial grants, early-payment discounts and agreements with healthcare institutions.

Formación Psicoterapia advises interested professionals to identify synergies with their employer and potential external funding sources. Consult your HR department, professional association or mental health–related foundations to align deadlines and requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know.

What are the main grants and funding options for psychotherapy training? +
The most common options combine public grant calls, private foundations, employer subsidies and educational credit. In Spain, the FUNDAE subsidy scheme is particularly relevant; in Mexico and Argentina, governmental, institutional and foundation support is available. Check deadlines, compatibility rules and whether funding covers tuition, supervision or materials.
How can I improve my chances of obtaining a psychotherapy grant? +
A strong application requires a clear clinical and social impact project, letters of recommendation from supervisors, and a motivation letter focused on trauma, attachment and psychosomatics. Add measurable return indicators (protocols, workshops, internal supervision) and align your budget with the grant's actual requirements.
Can I combine several funding sources to pay for psychotherapy training? +
Yes, combining partial grants, employer subsidies or academic discounts is common, provided the respective terms allow it. Plan timelines carefully, justify the co-funding arrangement and document the use of each source. Ensure consistency between return obligations and your clinical schedule.
What should a good psychotherapy programme include to justify funding? +
A fundable programme offers genuine clinical supervision, integration of attachment, trauma and psychosomatics, up-to-date bibliography and outcome metrics. It must demonstrate transfer to practice and ethical clarity, protecting both patient and therapist. Transparency regarding certifications is essential.
What are the typical deadlines for mental health grants and funding calls? +
Many calls open once or twice a year and require 8–12 weeks of preparation. Allow time for letters of recommendation, institutional procedures and potential interviews. Keep a calendar with reminders and up-to-date versions of your documentation.
Where can I find grants and funding for online psychotherapy training? +
Search the portals of Ibero-American foundations, professional associations and training institutions offering online programmes. Consider partial grants, early-payment discounts and employer agreements. Confirm whether the funding covers clinical supervision and digital materials.
