Join CNYPA

CNYPA membership offers many benefits, including:

  1. An opportunity to list your practice in our online, searchable directory of psychologists, which is open to the public and shared with other health professionals. Once you join you will be sent instructions for how to enter your information in the online directory.
  2. Enhanced communication among colleagues
    1. Free access to the CNYPA listserv, which provides a place to discuss referral resources, general discussions about psychology (e.g., topics in the news, insurance questions), and dissemination of professional advocacy issues (e.g., practice advisories).
    2. Opportunity to attend monthly CNYPA Board of Directors meetings (even if you are not a board member) and play a more active role in our friendly and collegial association.
    3. Invitations to twice-yearly happy hours designed to informally gather, talk, and relax with colleagues.
    4. Invitation to twice yearly dinner meetings for a more formal presentation and discussion about a particular member's areas of expertise. Dinner is partially subsidized by CNYPA dues.
    5. Invitation to the annual winter holiday meeting to celebrate with colleagues, participate in the summary business meeting of the year, and announce award recipients (i.e., Psychologist of the Year, Lifetime Achievement Award).
  3. Professional affairs advocacy:
    1. Representation to the state psychological association council and legislative committee to keep you informed about psychology topics statewide.
    2. Access provided to scheduled meetings with legislators.
