In certain instances, your mental health is best served by a course of treatment that may or may not involve medication. Treatment can only be offered by licensed clinicians.
Psychologists and psychotherapists
Psychologists and psychotherapists provide assessment and treatment that is intended to ease an individual’s psychological suffering. They cannot prescribe medication. Quebec’s psychologists and psychotherapists are licensed by the Order of Psychologists of Quebec.
