April is Counselling and Psychotherapy Month!
The purpose of Counselling and Psychotherapy month is to highlight the important services counsellors and psychotherapists provide.
Canada’s mental health system is under significant strain. Waiting lists to access mental health services are unacceptably long, and the Covid-19 pandemic has only exacerbated this crisis.
Registered Counsellors, Counselling Therapists, and Psychotherapists are here to help! However, they are not accepted universally across most health care plans. Advocacy is ongoing but there is still much work to be done. Did you know that Registered Counsellors and Psychotherapists have a minimum of a Master’s Degree? Furthermore, registration with a Professional Association ensures minimum standards of education, training, and clinical supervision.
