About Licensure

The licensure of all practicing psychologists and counsellors has been approved and mandated by the Council of Professions Supplementary to Medicine (CPSM). The Council adjudicates all matters related to licensure as a practicing professional, ethical issues/concerns and will also approve and monitor continuing education units (CEUs).
