Mount Sinai Psychotherapy Institute (MSPI)
The Mount Sinai Psychotherapy Institute is a University of Toronto, Faculty of Medicine-affiliated provider of skills-based interactive workshops and advanced psychotherapy training with individualized or group supervision taught by award winning faculty. Interactive, didactic workshops combine intensive in-vivo experiential training using standardized patients with electronic web-based clinical discussion.
