ARC Counselling is a respected private practice in the heart of downtown Vancouver, specializing in anxiety and related concerns. For nearly a decade, we’ve built a reputation for exceptional client care, guided by integrity, warmth, and professionalism, and supported by a team of compassionate, heart-centred clinicians.
We are currently seeking an Associate Counsellor (RCC or RSW) to join our growing team. This contractor opportunity is ideal for a therapist who is passionate about their clinical work and is looking for the support and resources of an established practice while avoiding the isolation and business stress that can come with running a solo practice.

- Clinical Support & Mentorship: You are never alone on your clinical journey. Benefit from one-on-one mentorship with our Clinical Director to support your growth, comfort, and success.
- A Beautiful Healing Space: Welcome clients to our newly-built downtown office across from Pacific Centre. Enjoy professionally soundproofed rooms, a calm waiting area with a complimentary coffee & tea station, and direct SkyTrain access.
- A Supportive & Grounded Team Culture: Become part of a warm, collegial community. We foster connection through monthly peer consultation groups and shared learning opportunities throughout the year.
What You Bring:
- Qualifications: Master’s Degree (minumum) in Counselling, Psychology, Social Work, or a related field.
- Licensing: Current registration and good standing with BCACC (RCC) or BCCSW (RSW).
- Experience: Demonstrated experience providing therapy for adults, particularly with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships.
- Ethical Practice: Active professional liability insurance and commitment to ongoing professional development.
