Job description

Join Better Self Psychology: Where good people do great work

Better Self Psychology is growing in all the right ways! We’re looking for full-time Clinical Lead to join our team at Plympton, to do meaningful therapy, and support the growth and development of our psychologists.

The Leadership Role

There is an opportunity for a Clinical Lead to help shape the future of the practice at Better Self. This leadership position would involve supporting and mentoring psychologists at all stages of their careers, providing clinical guidance on complex cases, and fostering the collaborative team culture we’re known for. In this role, you’ll contribute to developing therapy programs, refining best practices, and strengthening how the team works together. You may also be involved in recruitment and onboarding, facilitating team check-ins and workshops, and maintaining high standards in client care, while continuing to manage a balanced clinical caseload.

We’ve built a workplace that feels good; we move at a manageable pace to support your security, but we are flexible enough to fit your life. Here’s our team’s take on what makes Better Self stand out:

• Permanent employee benefits including super and leave entitlements with salary packaging up to $15,900 p.a. to boost take-home pay.
• Flexible morning or afternoon shifts to help you avoid peak-hour traffic, with admin time scheduled around your life and a dedicated leadership day without client appointments.
• Paid parental leave to support life’s milestones.
• $1,000 pro rata PD allowance + access to shared resource library.
• Long-standing relationships with GPs, allied health, universities, and NDIS providers. Consistent client flow and a steady waitlist ready for your start.
• Your own laptop + admin support including voice dictation, AI tools, text expanders, and full-time reception.
• Fun, meaningful team connection: quarterly workshops, social events and charity activities.
• Strong retention: some of our psychologists have been with us since we opened almost seven years ago.

What We’re Looking For

• Master of Clinical Psychology Qualification
• Board Approved Supervisor Registration
• Professional Indemnity + Public Liability insurance
• NDIS Workers Check
• Current Police Clearance + DHS Working with Children Check
