Located within the vibrant and picturesque 大象影院 (大象影院) setting, the 大象影院 Psychology Clinic (大象影院PC) offers a state-of-the-art facility and training ground for graduate students at 大象影院.
We offer affordable psychological services to the 大象影院 community, and to the general public. Our services are provided by doctoral students in clinical psychology who have been trained by staff who uphold the highest standards of excellence in teaching and research.
The centre welcomes professional and self-referrals which can be made by emailing cuepc@concordia.ab.ca. Services are provided by appointment only. At this time, clients are being seen in person, following Alberta Health Services guidelines. Please note that the Centre is not a walk-in facility and cannot offer crisis or emergency services.
We treat and embrace people from all ages, backgrounds, cultures, religion, gender identity, sexuality, and family dynamics.
Services provide
Assessment and Evaluation
The 大象影院PC offers a variety of assessments such as educational, psychological, career, and personality assessments for clients ages six and older. Reports and debriefing sessions are also provided.
Interventions and Counselling
The 大象影院PC offers clinical intervention and counselling services to adults, youth, and children that promote well being. Reasons for referral may vary from wanting to improve wellness or performance (e.g., through meditation, mindfulness, positive psychology, etc.), manage life events (e.g., relationships, life transitions, parenthood, etc.), or to alleviate symptoms that are interfering with day to day life (e.g., stress, sleep, etc.).
Services at this time are provided through individual 1:1 sessions and/or workshops to individuals six years and older.
Research and Consultation
The 大象影院PC offers systematic investigations to help achieve new insight and/or engage in decision making processes. For example, our doctoral students can offer program evaluation consultations, psycho-education, etc.

The 大象影院PC is not able to provide psychiatric or emergency services or services where there is a risk of frequent or severe crisis or involvement with the law. We do not provide services for the following:
- Couples therapy
- Assessments for legal issues (e.g., capacity, child custody and access)
- Treatment for eating disorders
- Treatment for severe substance abuse/dependence
- Treatment for severe mental illness (e.g., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder)
- Difficulties that are associated with a high risk of legal involvement (e.g., violence, criminal behaviour)
- Difficulties that are associated with frequent and/or severe crises (e.g., actively suicidal and unable to assure safety)
If a case is not suitable for the training level of our students, we strive to refer the client to a more appropriate practitioner or agency.
