Our Psychologists and Psychological team at KMA Therapy provide a wide array of services: from assessments to diagnosis, to evidence-based treatment. Psychologists at KMA offer counselling and psychotherapy services both in-person and online so that clients can easily access online therapy in Toronto and Ontario.There are a few key differences between a Registered Psychologist (CPsych) and a mental health practitioner such as a psychotherapist, counselor, or social worker. The education required for a Psychologist in Ontario is at the Ph.D. level in Psychology and the education required for the term ‘Psychological Associate’ in Ontario is a Master’s Degree in Psychology.Social workers, counselors, and psychotherapists generally have Master’s level training in the field of social work, counselling, psychology, play/music/art therapy, or family therapy. However, since the terms ‘psychotherapist’ and ‘counselor’ are unregulated in Ontario, it’s always important to check and verify the education and training of your therapist. All therapists at KMA Therapy have a Master's level training and several are completing or have achieved doctoral education.At KMA Therapy, our standards require that all of our therapists have a minimum of a Master's degree in their field which is usually psychology or social work, and in addition, they are supervised to provide Psychological Services in Ontario by a Clinical or Counselling Psychologist. All of our therapists and Psychologists adhere to the standards of practice of the CPO (College of Psychologists of Ontario).
