Looking for a clinic where you can advance your clinical skills while working with a motivated client base and a supportive team of therapists? Interested in delivering group therapy in the outdoors? We might be a match! We are currently seeking a therapist available 2 to 5 days per week and/or weekends.

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. We aim for our sessions to be intentional and embrace a culture of ongoing feedback.

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 also run ecotherapy programs throughout the year which allow therapists to facilitate group work in the great outdoors.
