Disgraced Grande Prairie doctor’s move to offer therapy reignites calls for counselling oversight body in Alberta
Description
January 26, 2024
Brianne Hudson, a doctor in Grande Prairie who had their medical licence revoked a year ago after being found guilty of sexually abusing a patient, is now offering services as an addictions counsellor. It's a move that is angering others in Alberta who work as therapists. As Sarah Ryan explains, the counselling sector is unregulated, despite years of efforts by those in the industry who have been pushing the province to approve the proposed College of Counselling Therapy of Alberta.
