CAPT Board of Directors for 2025

CAPT is governed by a Board of Directors that is elected bi-annually by the membership.

The CAPT Board of Directors operates in accordance with CAPT’s By-laws and Robert’s Rules of Order.

Below, are the members of the current CAPT Board of Directors.

Wallace Murray President

Julia Glover Vice President

Julia has a natural curiosity about human experiences that drive her professional work and development. Her career began as a journalist, where she worked in Canada and internationally for more than two decades before qualifying as a psychodynamic therapist with five years of training in the UK, followed by a placement in public healthcare working with adult complex trauma.

Since 2023, Julia has been Vice President on the board of the Canadian Association for Psychodynamic Therapy (CAPT) which represents +850 practitioners from coast-to-coast. She volunteers on the board to develop a sense of community among like-minded professionals and hopes to improve access to psychodynamic therapy in public health. In this role, she has launched seasonal lectures for knowledge transfer among peers, introduced benefits through partnerships and served as interim president.

Prior to receiving her postgraduate diploma awarded with merit in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice, Julia earned a Bachelor of Applied Arts in Journalism from Ryerson (now TMU) in Toronto, and a Master of Arts in Climate Change with Distinction from the University of Exeter.

She welcomes your feedback on CAPT and can be reached directly at jglovertherapy@gmail.com
