Find an International In-Person EA Meeting:
(Locations Outside the United States)
You can find in-person EA meetings outside of the United States here. If you are looking for a meeting in a language other than English, you may need to translate some of the information into your specific language.
You do not need to enter ALL the search terms - doing so will limit the number of options you receive. Please keep in mind that the FEWER specific parameters you use, the MORE meetings you will find. We suggest choosing ONE or TWO parameters to see as many meeting options as possible.
For example - if you do a search with the country as "Canada," you'll get four pages of meetings. If you do a search with the country as "Canada" and the province as "Ontario (ON)," you will get two pages of meetings.
Please remember:

EA’s goal is to meet the needs of all who wish to become well emotionally; therefore we support a range of meeting types.

Some countries or regions maintain their own list of EA groups and meeting information. If you can't find information for a group outside of the United States by using our directory, they have their own website that lists their meetings.
