Ce que l'ACCP signifie pour moi:

When I think of the CCPA, I think of professional connectedness and
information sharing. The CCPA embodies creating connection among
counselling professionals across Canada. This type of connection is
important not only for students, but also for counsellors and counselling psychologists to establish and maintain meaningful professional relationships. This connection is also essential for promoting the profession and educating the public on counselling's unique and essential image in the health care field. As a student beginning my career in the counselling profession, I am thankful for the CCPA's networking opportunities.

Ce que l'ACCP signifie pour moi:

CCPA has played an essential role in my professional
development and recognition as an art therapist and mental health
counsellor. Art therapy is still in its early development in Canada as a
recognized mental health profession and having a relationship with a
professional association like CCPA, has added to professional
recognition in this country. My role as the Creative Arts in Counselling
chapter president has provided me with the opportunity to enhance my
leadership skills, advocate for my profession, as well as to network with
like-minded individuals using the creative arts in their practice. I have been so grateful to meet and be in contact with so many interesting people all across Canada through the networks and relationships I have built with members of CCPA.

Ce que l'ACCP signifie pour moi:

Other than affordable liability insurance, which is clearly a plus, I
have appreciated the feeling of community - of belonging to a group of likeminded people with similar backgrounds. The CCA conferences have meant a great deal to me, although I am not able to attend every year due to distance and cost. I particularly appreciated the joint conference with the American Counselling Association in Montreal a few years back as well as the Vancouver session. These meetings gave my consulting business a huge boost and I have forged long term professional friendships thanks to the conferences.

L'ACCP représente pour moi un vaste réseau de conseillers de différentes provinces, langues, disciplines et d'orientation théorique différentes qui communiquent et collaborent entre eux de façon efficace afin de s'améliorer professionnellement face au service de counselling et psychothérapie. Je ne retrouve nulle part ailleurs cette belle richesse d'échange au niveau national !

Ce que l'ACCP signifie pour moi:

I appreciate ways that CCPA advocates for the profession of counselling and psychotherapy, and how they have kept members informed about important current issues, for example, issues around the regulation of psychotherapists and mental health therapists in the province of Ontario. I also appreciate CCPA's certified counsellor option. For me, it offered formalized recognition of my training and credentials, as well as a professional affiliation that opened up opportunities for me such as to be able to provide counselling services for various EAP organizations as part of my private practice work. I  have heard that the many faces of CCPA reflect many wonderful,  intelligent, dedicated, interesting, and spirited individuals. In my  experience, I couldn't agree more. Through its service and memebership, CCPA encompasses these.

Malgré que je sois un membre récent de l'ACCP (2007) et, pour le moment, peu impliqué, je sens néanmoins un sentiment d'appartenance envers ce réseau de professionnels, notamment en raison des valeurs communes qui y sont partagées. À l'occasion de mon premier Congrès, au Nouveau-Brunswick, en 2008, j'ai découvert une association de professionnels dynamique faisant preuve d'une grande autodétermination. Les membres de l'ACCP présents à ce Congrès ont démontré une soif de formation continue qui révèle  leur désir de professionnalisme.

Ce que l'ACCP signifie pour moi:

Cette association, dont je suis membre depuis plus de trente ans, constitue à mes yeux une entité dynamique vouée au développement de la profession du counseling au Canada. Elle y contribue notamment en favorisant le réseautage et la collaboration de toutes les personnes qui, au Canada et ailleurs, contribuent par leurs réflexions, leurs recherches et leurs pratiques à développer et à diffuser nos connaissances dans le vaste champ du counseling et de la psychothérapie. Dans un monde marqué par de nombreux et incessants changements, notamment dans la sphère du travail, la pertinence d'une association comme la nôtre est on ne peut plus évidente. En faire partie est toujours pour moi une source de fierté.

Ce que l'ACCP signifie pour moi:

CCPA is an important association to me since it protects the Public and clientele by certification to provide competent counsellors, involves us in Professional Development and thus provides counsellors with lifelong learning. CCPA is a very humane association that provides an ethical, approachable, warm National place for all counsellors.
