About Therapy Villa
Therapy Villa is a psychology and psychotherapy clinic with locations in Etobicoke and North York, working with adolescents, adults, couples, families, with particular depth in trauma, mood and anxiety.
The role
Therapy Villa has grown faster than our senior clinicians can keep up with. We're looking for a senior psychologist to carry their own caseload and support our growing team, including clinicians working under supervision, through supervision and case consultation. You'd be another senior clinical voice on a team of about 15 clinicians.
The work
- Therapy with adolescents, adults, couples and families
- Psychological assessments, including WSIB and MVA work
- Supervising 2 or 3 clinicians, if you're open to it, paid separately
- Talking through hard cases with peers, and helping shape how we supervise
The role is hybrid, so you can see clients on site in Etobicoke, North York and remotely. We also hold regular team meetings with our amazing clinicians. That's time with peers, because this work can be isolating.
How the role grows
- Availability for at least 15 hours a week, with room to grow more
- Our admin team books new clients into your calendar, so you don't need to bring your own
- You meet each supervisee before taking them on
What's taken care of by us
- Intake, booking, reminders and billing
- Following up on payments
- Marketing
- Office rent and upkeep of the physical space
- Other day-to-day administrative tasks
Compensation
- $140 to $180 per client session, depending on your experience and the session fee
Where it can go
As we grow, each service will need a Clinical Lead: assessments, anxiety, and training and coordination for new interns and therapists. Some of these are still being built, and you are welcome to contribute in the build. Lead work is paid separately. If this works for both of us, we discuss that at six months, against criteria we agree on mutually.
You might be
- A hospital or school board psychologist who misses having your own clients
- In solo practice and tired of doing your own scheduling at 9 pm
- Someone who enjoys supervising along with holding client therapy sessions
What you need
- A certificate for autonomous practice with the College of Psychologists and Behaviour Analysts of Ontario (CPBAO), as a Psychologist or Psychological Associate, with adults among your authorized client groups. Children, adolescents, couples and families are all welcome too
- At least 2 years of autonomous practice since registration
- Use of evidence-based therapy approaches. Training in trauma-informed modalities, such as EMDR, somatic therapies or Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), is an asset, as many of our clients look for these
- Your own professional liability insurance
Assets
- Experience supervising clinicians, and evening availability
