REGULATING PSYCHOLOGISTS IN NOVA SCOTIA SINCE 1980

I had a chance to speak to the assistant registrar and he asked to send this information off to you right away. If you would still like to speak to him, I will let him know. In the meantime, here is his suggestions.

Another psychologist can take over supervision temporarily. The NSRP would not have a problem. There is no problem both psychologists starting supervision right now. Policy allows them to begin meeting right away in such circumstances.

The paperwork would still be submitted for the temporary psychologist to supervise on a temporary basis (but they can start meeting prior to submitting the paperwork). By paperwork it would be the consent forms. Both psychologists would complete. On the form it could note that the switch is only temporary.

There are forms that would be signed later and if you like, they can be signed now. Here is a link to the Supervision Forms page that contains them:
