The Government of Nova Scotia recently announced that it will fund four new clinical psychology residency seats at Dalhousie University. The 12-month positions will be split between Dalhousie’s Centre for Psychological Health and Student Health & Wellness Centre. Residents will rotate through the two sites, gaining experience with different types of clients. “Residency seats are not easy to create, and I’m pleased to support this program that increases our efforts to train, recruit and retain more healthcare professionals so Nova Scotians can continue to receive timely access to important mental health and addiction services,” said NS Minister of Addictions and Mental Health Brian Comer. NS is investing $311K—beginning in 2025-26—into the residency program.
