Job description

Registered / Clinical Psychologist - Full Or Part Time

Your evenings back. A real admin team. 90 minutes of protected admin time, every single day. That's the practice we built - and we mean it literally. Now we need someone who can see kids.

We're Monica and Justin. We started Unbound Minds after years in practices that talked about work-life balance and delivered the opposite, so we built the one we wished we'd worked in. Here's what that actually looks like, day to day.

The honest bits first - because they're what you're actually wondering:

• Days are yours. Minimum two, up to five - we build the week around the right person. Rolling recruitment, so let's talk about what fits your life.
• Flexibility that respects your time. Client cancels? Don't warm a chair for two hours - go home, write your notes from the couch. Where it's appropriate, part of your week can be worked from home. Face-to-face therapy is anchored in-clinic, but your time is treated as yours.
• Pay with no games. Transparent bands - $130,000–$160,000 depending on registration level and experience - with clear, annual, guaranteed reviews. Everything substantial gets billed: reports, longer calls, case conferences.

What the work is actually like:

• Protected time that's real. 50-minute sessions with note-taking built in, plus 90 minutes of protected admin every day. AI note-taking (clients consent at intake) so your evenings come back.
• A dedicated, highly skilled admin team runs booking, billing and scheduling. You do psychology, not paperwork.
• Caseloads matched to your interests - strong in anxiety, school refusal, trauma, parent work? We route you that work and hold off on what doesn't fit.
• Supervision that isn't box-ticking - monthly group plus dedicated 1-on-1.
• A real path forward - Registered/clinical psychologists through to senior and stream-lead, plus a $1,000 PD allowance, up to $1,000 wellness allowance, early long-service leave (3 years, not 10), and salary packaging.

You won't be out here on your own. Every practice tracks utilisation. Most use it to push you harder. We use it the other way: when the team's capacity tightens, that's our signal to hire - not your signal to squeeze in another client. Right now the tight spot is kids. More families want their children seen than our current team has room for. Your caseload fills from established referral demand, so you're never hustling to build a book from scratch, and it stays full at a level we're upfront about, not a level a spreadsheet decided for you. And you're not doing any of it alone - there's a room full of colleagues to debrief with when a session lands heavy. We built this system because we watched good psychologists burn out in practices that ran it backwards. Not here.

Who we're after: an AHPRA-registered psychologist who does thoughtful clinical work and wants to do it somewhere sane. This role needs someone confident seeing kids, and comfortable working with their parents too. Ideally 2+ years - earlier and good? Apply anyway. Heart, judgment and genuine care for clients matter more to us than a perfect CV.
