The Psychology Training Clinic provides service to community residents, especially those with moderate to mild psychological concerns who may not be able to easily access other services. Clients and students benefit from clinical experience of clinical faculty members who are registered and abreast of the most recent research in the field of clinical psychology. Psychological Services
All clients will be provided services by a PhD student in Clinical Psychology under close supervision of registered doctoral psychologists. This may involve sessions with both the student-therapist and supervisor or the student-therapist with close review of sessions by the supervisor. Services offered in the Clinic vary from year to year depending on the expertise of the Clinic supervisors. In the Fall of 2014 and Winter of 2015, we will be providing the following types of services:
•Assessment services for adults to assist with identification of problems and treatment planning;
•Individually based psychotherapy for adults for anxiety, depression, and health-concerns using cognitive-behavioural therapy.
•Group based cognitive-behavioural therapy for adults with anxiety, depression and health-concerns may also be available. Eligibility for Service
In order to ensure high quality of care, we request that all clients have a family physician that they consent to have assessment information released to and who can be contacted in the event of an emergency. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the training setting, we will not be able to accept clients who are: 1) in receipt of other mental health services; 2) involved in litigation; 3) receiving financial compensation from a third party; and or 4) associated with a member of the Sun Life Financial Psychology Training Clinic. Confidentiality Policy
All information about clients is kept in strict confidence and only available to the client, therapist, and supervisor, and if appropriate the physician or legal guardian. No information about a client will be shared with any other party without written permission. Only in rare circumstances as outlined by federal and provincial acts is confidential information disclosed without consent (e.g., if a client is found to be an imminent danger to him/herself or to someone else).
