Meet Catherine Williams
MSW, RCSW (#08659)
Catherine has deep roots in her training as a therapist. She has both an Undergrad Degree (UWO) and a Master's Degree (U of C) in Clinical Social Work - Six years of Clinical Education with Supervised Practicums. She is licensed with the BC College of Social Workers, which is a regulating body that serves to protect the public and ensures standards of practice.
Catherine was in the first cohort of MSWs in 2005 to obtain the new "Clinical" designation. Like psychiatrists and psychologists, Registered Clinical Social Workers (RCSW) can also provide a legally recognized diagnosis from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-V).
Having this designation means that clients are GST exempt and Revenue Canada will reimburse the costs of clinical services as a medical expense on tax returns.
Spending time with family should be relaxed and enjoyable.
Dealing with children's problems while they're young is much easier than waiting until they're older!
