Since 2019, Dr. Debbie Clelland and students from Adler University have been collecting information from professionals across British Columbia, Canada, who specialize in working with gifted children, adolescents and adults. The directory was most recently updated in January, 2025. It is now available on both the GCABC and
Making Sense of Giftedness websites.

Directory Information
This directory has been created by asking professionals who work with gifted folks or their families to provide information about their practice.
​
It includes professionals who have requested to be on this directory as of Dec 2024, and are currently offering counselling, psychological services, and occupational therapy. You would need to check with the professional to see if they are currently taking new clients.
​
If you are seeking a psycho-educational assessment, look for Registered Psychologists who answered "Yes" to offering a Psycho-Educational Assessment.
​
The directory is arranged by geographical location in the order that we heard from the professionals. There is also information about the number of years each professional has been in practice, what % of their clients are gifted, and training they have done to work with this population.
​
For professionals who would like to be added to the directory, please contact Debbie at MakingSenseOfGiftedness@pm.me
