I’m a psychologist registered in Nova Scotia but I have a new/transfer client who is located in the Yukon and who will remain there for the foreseeable future. I’m wondering what NSBEP’s position is on providing services to someone in the Yukon given that there is no regulatory body for psychology there?

To answer your question, in this case, our understanding is exactly the same as yours that the Yukon, is one Canadian jurisdiction where there is no regulatory body in psychology to seek authorization from. You would not be prevented from providing service to this client.

Like all situations involving telepsychology, we would refer you to the NSRP standards for telepsychology.
