Today, we are making invisible things VISIBLE for the people of Ontario and therapists, shining a light the landscape of mental health care in this province. In today’s episode, I am talking to the President of the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals (OAMHP), Registered Psychotherapist Jane Alway, about the barriers we face, and the opportunities for action.
We cover:
- Why did both waitlists, and certain conditions like eating disorders, increase during the pandemic?
- Exactly how can our provincial government increase everyday Ontarians' access to mental health care?
- If we want to be able to be able to see a qualified therapist within a reasonable amount of time, what should we be asking our provincial candidates during the upcoming election?
- How can psychotherapists in Ontario use their voices to help advocate for their clients?
