The profession of psychologists in Ontario is at crossroads, and the public needs to be aware of these proposed changes by our college. It is important that we continue to preserve the high standards for psychologists that have ensured high quality mental health care across Ontario. Please scroll through these slides to better understand the situation and what the public at large can do to support continued high quality mental health care from psychologists.
