Registered Psychotherapists and Social Workers are regulated practitioners in psychotherapy in good standing with their respective colleges: The College of Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) or the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW). In Ontario, therapists who are registered with the CRPO, use the title or designation of Registered Psychotherapist and have the abbreviation RP after their name. Social Workers who are registered in Ontario use the designation Registered Social Worker and have the abbreviation RSW after their name.

Psychotherapy is primarily a talk-based therapy and is intended to help people improve and maintain their mental health and well-being. Registered Psychotherapists and Social Workers work with individuals, couples and families in individual and group settings. Psychotherapy occurs when the RP/RSW and the client enter into a psychotherapeutic relationship where both work together to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour and social functioning. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.
