29 people have been granted a professional warrant which will mean that they can now practice the profession of psychology. A warrant which is not only a legal authorization but a public declaration of trust that society is placing in each and every one of these graduates.<\/p>\n

This profession has continued to grow in importance along with other social disciplines, in light of increased demand for mental health services.<\/p>\n

At a ceremony on Friday afternoon, the Minister for Social Policy and Children’s Rights, Michael Falzon, described psychology as essential in hospitals, schools, workplaces and our communities.<\/p>\n

“This warrant that you are receiving today carries a weight, it carries an ethical and professional responsibility. People come to you in their most vulnerable moments, in moments of crisis and grief. Your empathy and discipline must be the framework of that assistance with an individual plan that must be at the centre of every intervention,” stressed Minister Michael Falzon.<\/p>\n

Chairperson of the Psychology Board, Priscilla Muscat, spoke about the role of this Board, in order to provide more accessibility to psychological services. She defined this day as the beginning of a journey of learning, experience and a mark in the life of that individual who truly needs compassion.<\/p>\n
