HOW? All members who have their membership dues in by January 31, 2012 will be entered into a draw for an IPad2!!!!!!
There have been a few changes to membership renewal, so please read carefully. As was shared in a prior e-mail, our membership renewal dues have increased. The increase to $200 transpired at the 2011 AGM and is effective for your upcoming new membership and renewal dues this January 2012. In September 2011 we sent out an e-mail describing how this increase arose and in November 2011 we hosted a teleconference to discuss the increase and how any potential revenue may be spent. If you have further question about the increase please contact the President. In order to insure that you are entered in the draw for the IPad2 when sending in your dues please write membership dues on the outside of the envelope.

President's Message
Welcome to the website of the Association of Psychology in Newfoundland Labrador (APNL)!
If you are a Psychologist and wish to contact us, please find our contact information in the "Contact Us" section of the website.
If you are seeking Psychology Services, please use our "Find a Psychology Provider" section.
The APNL is a fraternal organization dedicated to the promotion of psychology in Newfoundland and Labrador and to the service of our members across the province. Our parent organization is the Canadian Psychological Association. Currently, there are approximately 220 APNL members province-wide. APNL was known as ANP until June 2007.
Research and academic psychologists use the scientific method to study human thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Applied psychologists apply the results of that research for the betterment of humanity at the societal, policy, program, organizational, group, family and individual level.
Psychologists analyze human development across the lifespan and are an integral part of the education and health systems in this province. Psychologists in independent practice contribute to the well-being of individuals, families, organizations, and communities throughout Newfoundland and Labrador.
Psychology is for everyone!
As of the 2010 AGM, APNL has made a fee schedule recommendation at the rate of $135/hour for individual treatment provided by a Registered Psychologist. We arrived at this decision by comparing rates in the other Atlantic Provinces, and the membership voted at the last AGM.
