The ‘academic’ year is July 1 to June 30, however ‘off-cycle’ candidates will also be considered Program General Information: The Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology Fellowship: Psychopharmacology Focus is a one-year supervised training program open to qualified psychiatry residents who have completed their Psychiatry Postgraduate training and are eligible for practice in Canada. This fellowship program is based in the Clinical Psychopharmacology and Therapeutics Unit of the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), Department of Psychiatry, McGill University, and is carried out in collaboration with a number of University hospitals and centers, namely the Clinical Toxicology Service of the MUHC, Alan Edwards Centre for Research on Pain at the MUHC, Internal Medicine at the MUHC or JGH (Hypertension clinic), Douglas Mental Health University Institute, and the Montreal Neurological Hospital and Institute; as well as the Department of Pharmacy of the MUHC. The objective of this program is to provide advanced training in clinical pharmacology and toxicology with a psychopharmacology focus to residents interested in gaining an expertise in the pharmacological treatment of their patients. Specifically they will learn best practices for 1. patients with complex medication regimes, 2. treatment resistant patients, 3. adverse drug reactions including iatrogenic ADR 4. consultation based care and practices After successfully completing the fellowship it is expected that fellows will become experts in the management of the most difficult psychiatric patients who are often those with significant other medical co-morbidities.

  • Clinical Versus Counseling Psychology: What's the Diff? by John C
    Clinical Versus Counseling Psychology: What's the Diff? by John C. Norcross - University of Scranton, Fields of Psychology Graduate School The majority of psychology students applying to graduate school are interested in clinical work, and approximately half of all graduate degrees in psychology are awarded in the subfields of clinical and counseling psychology (Mayne, Norcross, & Sayette, 2000). But deciding on a health care specialization in psychology gets complicated. The urgent question facing each student--and the question frequently posed to academic advisors--is "What are the differences between clinical psychology and counseling psychology?" Or, as I am asked in graduate school workshops, "What's the diff?" This article seeks to summarize the considerable similarities and salient differences between these two psychology subfields on the basis of several recent research studies. The results can facilitate your informed choice in the application process, enhance matching between the specialization and your interests, and sharpen the respective identities of psychology training programs. Considerable Similarities The distinctions between clinical psychology and counseling psychology have steadily faded in recent years, leading many to recommend a merger of the two. Graduates of doctoral- level clinical and counseling psychology programs are generally eligible for the same professional benefits, such as psychology licensure, independent practice, and insurance reimbursement. The American Psychological Association (APA) ceased distinguishing

  • 1 from Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy to the Four Defining Characteristics of Self-Transcendence (ST) Paul T. P. Wong Introductio
    1 From Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy to the Four Defining Characteristics of Self-Transcendence (ST) Paul T. P. Wong Introduction The present paper continues my earlier presentation on self-transcendence (ST) as a pathway to meaning, virtue, and happiness (Wong, 2016), in which I introduced Viktor Frankl’s (1985) two-factor theory of ST. Here, the same topic of ST is expanded by first providing the basic assumptions of logotherapy, then arguing the need for objective standards for meaning, and finally elaborating the defining characteristics of ST. To begin, here is a common-sense observation—no one can remain at the same spot for life for a variety of reasons, such as developmental and environmental changes, but most importantly because people dream of a better life and want to move to a preferred destination where they can find happiness and fulfillment. As a psychologist, I am interested in finding out (a) which destination people choose and (b) how they plan to get there successfully. In a free society that offers many opportunities for individuals, there are almost endless options regarding both (a) and (b). The reality is that not all purposes in life are equal. Some life goals are misguided, such as wanting to get rich by any means, including unethical and illegal ones, because ultimately, such choices could be self-defeating—these end values might not only fail to fill their hearts with happiness, but might also ruin their relationships and careers. The question, then, is: What kind of choices will have the greatest likelihood of resulting in a good life that not only benefits the individual but also society? My research has led me to hypothesize that the path of ST is most likely to result in such a good life.
