Psychologists and psychological associates practicing in Ontario are "registered to practice at the same level of competence" (quoted from the College of Psychologists' website). All have studied psychology in an academic setting, most to the PhD level; others have opted for a Masters degree and a lengthy apprenticeship instead. Some counsel couples, families and children. They belong to a college that maintains standards of training, practice, confidentiality, and treatment of clients or patients. Clinical psychologists do psychotherapy. Like all reputable therapists, they follow strict rules about protecting privacy.
