Important Note Regarding Former & Present Clients Applying:

As a clinic of regulated health care providers, we are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards as outlined by the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) and the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). In honoring our professional responsibilities to both current and former clients, we must carefully consider the impact of dual relationships on therapeutic boundaries, confidentiality, and the integrity of care.

To maintain these standards and protect the well-being of all individuals involved, former and current clients of our clinic may not be eligible for associate opportunities within the practice. This consideration is not a reflection of an applicant’s qualifications or character, but rather a necessary measure to prevent potential ethical conflicts and preserve the trust placed in our clinical relationships.
