Psychologist Talk with Michaela Kadambi
Michaela Kadambi Ph.D., R. Psych. (she/her): is a BIPOC (South Asian/European) registered psychologist in Edmonton who specializes in anxiety disorders and traumatic stress. Having the highest levels of education and training experiences required for psychologists in Alberta, she offers in-person and telehealth services to individuals and couples. Her clinical work is deeply informed by current research, best practices, advanced clinical training, and over two decades of professional experience. Dr. Kadambi is a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional through Post-Partum International and is a certified consultant in Prolonged Exposure therapy through the Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety (Division of Pennsylvania State University). Diversity is celebrated in her practice. Clients from all backgrounds, religions, sexual orientations, and gender expressions are welcomed for individual or couples counselling.
Description
Psychologists assess and diagnose behavioral, emotional and cognitive disorders, counsel clients, provide therapy, conduct research and apply theory relating to behavior and mental processes. Psychologists help clients work toward the maintenance and enhancement of psychological, physical, intellectual, emotional, social and interpersonal functioning. They work in private practice or in clinics, correctional facilities, hospitals, mental health facilities, rehabilitation centres, community service organizations, businesses, schools and universities, and in government and private research agencies.
Job Forecast
For Psychologists, over the period 2019-2028, new job openings (arising from expansion demand and replacement demand) are expected to total 15,700 , while 13,700 new job seekers (arising from school leavers, immigration and mobility) are expected to be available to fill them.
With regard to labour supply, psychologists are a regulated occupation and in most provinces in Canada workers need to have a doctorate degree in order to be able to work. Without a PhD degree, workers must work in some closely related occupations for some years before being granted the right to work as a psychologist. As a result, occupational movers are projected to account for the majority of job seekers.
Employment Requirements
A doctoral degree in psychology is required in order to use the designation “Psychologist” in Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and British Columbia.
A master’s degree in psychology is required for the designation “Psychologist” in Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, Alberta and the Northwest Territories.
A master’s degree in psychology is required in order to use the designation “Psychological Associate” in Ontario and Manitoba.
In Prince Edward Island, a doctoral degree is required to work in private practice, or a master’s degree with practice limited to institutions and agencies.
