Registered Psychologist – Independent Contractor
Join a collaborative, values-driven practice where wellness and sustainability come first.
About Us
We’re a growing, integrative mental health and wellness practice grounded in values of connection, care, and co creation. Our team is committed to building a culture where clinicians feel resourced, clients feel deeply supported, and work feels like a sustainable part of life (not something to recover from).
Grow with us, we offer a thoughtfully designed space, flexible schedules, peer consultation, and meaningful opportunities to contribute to a team that prioritizes wellness, not just hustle.
If you’re a psychologist looking for more than just a room and referrals, if you want to feel part of something human, ethical, and forward-thinking … we’d love to connect.
