Therapist wanted

Posted on by

Due to the lack of professionals in our industry, we are not as able to book appointments as quickly as we are accustomed to. The choices for new clients who prefer specific parameters (gender, working hours, etc.) are reduced and appointment booking times are further down the road than we wish.

 

Even with offering a finders’ fee we have been unsuccessful in adding suitable new candidates to our team.  Unfortunately, this is not a problem specific to our agency.  Nor is it a problem specific to Saskatoon – or Saskatchewan – or even Canada for that matter. 

We want you to know that we are always doing our very best to provide new and former clients with exceptional customer service. 

 

If you are a therapist with a Masters’ degree in a human service field, licensed or certified by a recognized body and have liability insurance looking to join a team of great people, please send your resume in confidence to ruth.rousell@peopleproblems.ca. 

Covid Update

Posted on by

Beginning July 1, PPC will no longer require or request masking in the common areas. Clients, therapists and staff choosing to remain masked will be fully supported. Masking (or not masking) during sessions may be discussed directly between therapists and their clients.

We will continue to have limited seating capacity (for 4 people) in the waiting area.

Although the provincial regulations regarding masks is lifted on July 11, we request that clients, staff & therapists continue to wear masks in the common areas.   Therapists and clients can mutually decide if masks will be worn during your session.

Our waiting room will remain closed until further notice.

With thanks,

PPC Team

After 23 years of dedication to PPC and outstanding service to many, many clients (and a 30+ year career as a school counselor with the GSCS), Angela Stern has made the exciting decision to retire from private practice, effective May 8, 2020.

We thank her so much for all she has done, and wish her nothing but happiness and fulfilment in this next chapter!

Minor Children Protocol

Posted on by

We have recently updated our session policies and Joint Custody Consent Form for minor children.

PPC has different protocols for children 14 or younger, and for teens 15+. For children 14 & under, the first session is with the parents/caregivers only. Parents of teens 15+ are encouraged to attend the first part of the first session together and determine with the therapist what is the best process to follow going forward.

By law, we must also be aware of the custody arrangement between the biological parents, and have signed documents on file before sessions with a child can take place.

Please see our Resources section for the updated policy and consent form HERE.
