About the 2026 Conference
As we gather this year in Halifax, in the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq, we are reminded of the deep relationship between this region and the waters that surround it. The Atlantic and the harbour have long been places of movement and connection — currents that bring people together, enable exchange, and shape new pathways forward.
These waters reflect many of the values central to our profession: flow, growth, learning, renewal, and community. Their rhythm mirrors the ways we learn from one another, support one another, and strengthen our collective work.
The 2026 CCPA Annual Conference invites us to come together on the East Coast to share knowledge, build meaningful connections, and leave feeling inspired, connected, and renewed — strengthening our impact across counselling and psychotherapy in Canada
