February is Psychology Month: Let’s Celebrate School Psychologists’ Contributions to Communities!
From the Canadian Psychological Association - Educational and School Psychology Section
As we celebrate Psychology Month in Canada, we would like to use this opportunity to draw attention to the important work school psychologists are doing across the country.
Who are school psychologists?
School psychologists are highly trained mental health professionals who provide unique learning and mental health services to school communities, using their expertise in child development, learning, mental health, behaviour, while also understanding school systems.
Psychology Month 2023 #1.pdfTo Our Communities
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. To provide assistance to those looking to garner mental health support we have compiled a list of our members who are willing and able to provide virtual care. Please see Public Resources. 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.
