Get to Know the Terminology:
Clinical Psychologist: Psychologists are member of the College of Psychologists of Ontario and allowed to conduct assessments, diagnose and conduct psychotherapy services, but cannot prescribe.
Psychiatrist: Psychiatrists are medical doctors (MDs) who have completed medical school and additional specialized training in psychiatry. They are allowed to conduct assessments, prescribe medication and make a diagnosis.

In Ontario, psychotherapy is considered a controlled act, meaning it should only be performed by a properly qualified professional to ensure client/patient safety.
It is defined by the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) as, treating, by means of psychotherapy technique, delivered through a therapeutic relationship, an individual’s serious disorder of thought, cognition, mood, emotional regulation, perception or memory that may seriously impair the individual’s judgement, insight, behaviour, communication or social functioning.
Student therapists and interns are in the process of completing their Master’s level education. They are closely supervised by our Registered Psychotherapists.
