Join Canada’s Counsellors and Psychotherapists in Celebrating Mental Health Week!

The Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) is proud to celebrate Mental Health Week, taking place from May 4-8, 2015.  An initiative of the Canadian Mental Health Association, this special week is an annual national event that takes place during the first week of May to encourage people from all walks of life to learn, talk, reflect and engage with others on all issues relating to mental health.

“Qualified counsellors and psychotherapists are part of the continuum of care in primary health care and make vital contributions to the mental health and well-being of all Canadians,” said CCPA President, Blythe Shepard.  “Together, we collaborate with other mental health associations, organizations, and governments to advocate for appropriateness of care – access to the right care, provided by the right provider(s), to the right person, at the right time.”
