We’re looking for an EMDR Therapist to join our team at Leone Centre, a respected and welcoming therapy practice in London.

At Leone Centre, we have been supporting individuals, couples, families, and professionals since 2009. We are a thriving, well-regarded practice with a highly experienced and supportive team. We’re excited to welcome new colleagues.

Location: In-person at our welcoming consulting rooms in Fulham, Kensington, Belgravia, or Wimbledon, and/or online.

Contract: Self-Employed

Hourly Rate: Competitive, based on experience and availability

Availability: We welcome applications from therapists who offer:

• In-person sessions at our London consulting rooms
• Online-only sessions
• A combination of both online and in-person sessions

(If working in-person, a minimum of 10 hours per week at our London sites is preferred.) Part-time, with weekday, evening, and/or weekend slots available to choose from.

• A collaborative, inclusive, and supportive team culture
• Become a part of a team of respected and experienced therapists
• Competitive pay with the flexibility to shape your hours around your life.

As a therapist at Leone Centre, you will have the flexibility to set your own weekly hours. Many of our therapists typically offer availability for two days per week, or a few evenings, with the option of weekends if preferred. We make sure you are fully supported. Our admin team is the first point of contact for all clients, so you don’t need to worry about handling introductory calls. Clients are booked in for an initial paid consultation with you, after which ongoing sessions are arranged easily through our booking system. You are supported by our admin team, who are available Monday to Friday, 9am–6pm, for any queries or client needs. Whether working online via Zoom or in one of our peaceful London consulting rooms, you’ll benefit from a system that takes care of room fees, admin, cancellations, and logistical concerns so you can focus entirely on your sessions.
