Independent Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, or Mental Health Social Worker to join Gymea Private Practice

Looking to transition from a public role into one with more flexibility, a motivated client base, and generous remuneration? We are offering you the opportunity to work for yourself but not by yourself within our practice.

About Us:

Clarity Therapy is a mental health private practice that believes therapy is much more than the treatment of a condition, and rather an enriching process of self-discovery and growth.

We are a multi-disciplinary practice led by a mental health social worker which draws on the professions of psychology, counselling, social work, and psychotherapy. We focus on making therapy engaging for clients with a focus on a strong therapeutic alliance and the use of practical skills.

Based in Gymea close to several GP clinics and coffee shops, we have professionally designed therapy rooms with lots of natural light designed for the therapy space to be comfortable for clinicians just as much as our clients. We invest in the “little touches” that make coming to work feel different.

Our practice focuses on the importance of the therapeutic fit for both clients and clinicians, aiming to provide you with your ideal clients.

We receive a diverse range of referrals however have a specific focus in the following areas:

  • Stress & burnout
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Trauma
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • ADHD
  • Relationship difficulties
  • Adjustment challenges
  • Couples counselling
  • Adolescents and young adults
