Description
Green Leaf Psychological Services is seeking a personable, skilled Registered Counsellor to join our established private practice clinic in Halifax, Nova Scotia with full-time and part-time opportunities.
This position offers flexible working hours, generous compensation, health benefits, and a full clinical caseload on day one, without the stress of running your own practice or being limited to a 9-5 traditional position.
Our newly renovated, fully furnished offices are bright, modern, and located in a professional building in the heart of Halifax, surrounded by physicians, dentists, pharmacies, yoga studios, and other complementary services. We receive a very high volume of referrals from Halifax, Bedford, and Dartmouth, and are currently unable to meet demand.
Successful candidates join with a full caseload ready immediately, or whenever you choose to take this on. We offer a warm, supportive environment, full administrative support, regular peer consultations, and a genuine emphasis on work-life balance.
Why Choose Green Leaf?
- Full caseload provided - no marketing or networking required.
- Flexible scheduling - choose weekdays, evenings, or a mix.
- No minimum hours (set your own availability).
- Fully furnished, modern office space in a central location.
- Full-time in-office administrative support - intakes, scheduling, client screening, payments, etc.
- Collaborative, friendly clinical team.
- Regular peer consultations.
- Work–life balance built into our practice model.
- Health benefits.
Compensation:
- Estimated annual earnings: $130,000 - $140,000.
- Above-market compensation with most counsellors exceeding $130,000 in their very first year.
Qualifications:
- Masters or Doctoral degree in Counselling or Psychology.
- Registered with The Nova Scotia College of Counselling Therapists.
- Experience providing treatment and intervention services for adults, and/or couples, and/or teens.
- Interest in working in a supportive, private practice environment.
Who This Opportunity Is Perfect For:
- Counsellors wanting the freedom of private practice without the administrative burden.
- Counsellors transitioning from hospital, community mental health, other private practice clinics, or government settings.
- Counsellors seeking higher income, more autonomy, and flexible hours.
- Counsellors who currently find themselves in less than healthy or toxic workplaces (unfortunately they do exist). We are very focused on maintaining a healthy, friendly, and respectful clinic.
- Counsellors in Nova Scotia who are currently operating independently but do not have a full caseload.
How to Apply:
- Note: This position is open to residents of Canada only.
- Please submit your resume and cover letter by email ([email protected]), or visit our website for more details and to submit online: https://www.greenleafpsychological.com/counsellor-jobs-halifax-nova-scotia.html.
