The Psychology Association of Saskatchewan (PAS) is very aware of the wide-reaching impact COVID-19 is having on the people of our province. In this time of uncertainty, existing mental health concerns may worsen or new ones may arise.

This list will be updated over time.

Recommended Fee: $200 per hour
The above fee recommendation derived by the Psychological Association of Saskatchewan represents a general guideline to assist individual psychologists in determining fee rates for services. The fee recommendation is also made available for reference to users of psychological services such as individual clients and insurers. Each practitioner sets their own fees, incorporating this fee guideline into their particular circumstance. It is expected fees will be adjusted based upon the specific credentials of the psychologist and nature of services being offered (e.g., legal and consultation services may garner a higher hourly rate).
This fee recommendation came into effect on January 2022. It is the intention of the PAS to review the fee on an annual basis.

CRSI is excited to present our 2023 Spring Conference at TCU Place in Saskatoon:
“THE SCARF MODEL: Conflict Formation and Resolution”
with
Samantha Karlin of the NeuroLeadership Institute
June 8, 2023
9:00 am – 4:30 pm
Registration for In-Person: 8:30 am June 9, 2023
8:00 – 9:00 am Breakfast & Registration
Conference: 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon {Central/SK time}
Samantha will be presenting the SCARF Model a framework of basic human social needs and their role in conflict formation and resolution.
David Rock and the NeuroLeadership Institute have developed, since 2009, a brain-based model of basic human social needs. The far-reaching implications and benefits of this model continue to accrue with further research and practice. Conflict Resolution Saskatchewan Inc. offers a unique opportunity to explore the model in the Saskatchewan context with a full day of Samantha Karlin of the NeuroLeadership Institute on June 8 followed by a facilitated morning with Sherry Van Hesteren on June 9, including a panel of professionals who incorporate the SCARF model into their daily work. Sherry will moderate the panel discussion and then lead an engaging and interactive discussion, applying and finding the relevance of the model for participants.
We’ve all heard of Maslow’s hierarchy of basic human needs - but what about psychological needs? Join the
Neuroleadership Institute for an interactive day of training on the SCARF model- our copyrighted model of psychological needs. We are going to take a deep dive into the neuroscience of emotions. Participants will learn emotional regulation strategies, how to re-interpret triggers, and discuss tactics to defuse the flames of heated moments in order to prevent and de-escalate conflict.
