Announcing our Inaugural Initiative
Counselling and Psychotherapy Month takes place in April!
#accessmentalhealthcare
The Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and lead partner Owl Practice are proud to introduce Counselling and Psychotherapy Month in April 2022. We hope that you will join us in celebrating the invaluable work of counsellors/counselling therapists/psychotherapists across Canada. This month, we will:
- Recognize the important services that CCPA members, and counsellors, counselling therapists and psychotherapists at large, provide to Canadians, through media releases and our Thank a Therapist platform.
- Offer support to practitioners via affordable professional development and networking opportunities that will revitalize their practice and reconnect them with their professional community,
- Increase the profile of the profession through public awareness and advocacy initiatives, including a social media toolkit, #accessmentalhealthcare campaign, and Yellow Day,
- Raise awareness of CCPA’s recommendations to the Federal Government through a virtual Parliament Hill Week.

CCPA calls on all parties to ensure the Federal Government encourages equitable access to ALL mental health service providers – including counsellors, counselling therapists and psychotherapists – for ALL Canadians!
Our spokespersons will meet with key Members of Parliament to raise awareness around CCPA’s key federal advocacy messages. Share our updates as we post them on socials to get involved and support the cause.
