A Bit About Us

Safe House Psychology is a new private practice which aims to deliver specialised and professional Psychological counselling services to people of all ages, including children, adolescents, and adults, from the ages of 5+ onwards. Safe House Psychology is inclusive of all cultural and racially diverse individuals, couples, and families, providing support in clinical, educational and developmental areas of psychology.

We are looking to for a team of Clinical or General Psychologists to provide high quality treatment for a range of daily life concerns, to specialised treatment for a range of mental health disorders within a clinical setting, who are able to offer after hours services, to suit all needs and schedules.

We are currently seeking ambitious, passionate and driven psychologists who are looking to grow and develop their skills in private practice. For anyone looking to move into private practice, we also encourage you to apply, as we offer support and mentoring, assisting in planning sessions, and developing your skills across the lifespan.

Safe House Psychology aims to provide a flexible and empowering workplace for individuals seeking autonomy, as our focus is to provide our Psychologists with the support necessary to have a good work/life balance. We recognise that Psychologists cannot be the best version of themselves when working on large case loads/KPI's, and therefore do not maintain this standard. Our goal is to ensure that all Psychologists are well supported, empowered and surrounded by an ever growing supportive team.

Safe House Psychology currently has Contract positions available!

This role will allow you to build your skills across a diverse range of presentations, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Oppositional Defiance Disorder (ODD), Depression, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorder, Trauma, Eating Disorders, Grief and Loss and Social Skills Deficits.
