IPA  Virtual Workshop - August 12, 2023

The International Paruresis Association (IPA) was founded in 1996 to raise public awareness about paruresis, provide support, and give out the latest information.  Most of IPA's members and leadership are treatment professionals, people suffering from paruresis or recovering from it, and their loved ones.  Membership is open to anyone touched by paruresis as well as those with an interest in supporting others with paruresis, advocating for their rights, and advancing scientific knowledge about the disorder.

Begin Your Recovery - Attend a Virtual Workshop

The International Paruresis Association is pleased to present our next online Virtual Workshop. Since February 2020, we&#x27;ve hosted over 100 participants (both men and women) who found it very helpful on their walks with Paruresis. The event will take place on the Zoom platform from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. EDT. It will be hosted by IPA Executive Director, Tim Pyle, and led by Dan Rocker, LCSW, MA, the co-director of the Shy Bladder Center and IPA President (<a href="https://paruresis.org/wp-content/uploads/IPA-message-10-2-22-at-1.30-PM-2-Dan-Rocker.mp4" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">meet Dan in advance through this video!</a>).
