This is a foundational role where you wil help us build our clinical culture from the ground up at our new South Whitby location.

● Design and implement creative, age-appropriate, and goal-oriented treatment plans using play therapy and other expressive modalities to support neurodivergent clients and those presenting with mental health challenges.

● Facilitate individual play therapy or counseling sessions that promote emotional regulation, trauma processing, self-expression, and healthy coping mechanisms.

● Maintain accurate, confidential, and timely clinical documentation (progress notes, treatment plans, and termination summaries) in accordance with college standards.

● Collaborate with parents/guardians, providing family consultations and parent coaching when appropriate.

● Partner with our expanding multi-disciplinary team to provide holistic, wrap-around care.

● Manage your own scheduling and client communications in alignment with practice policies. The Ideal Candidate

● Collaborative: A team player eager to participate in multi-disciplinary care.

● Adaptable: Comfortable with the evolving nature of a new site launch. ● Energetic: Bringing creativity and passion to your therapeutic work. Qualifications & Credentials

● Regulation: Registration with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) is highly preferred/required; qualifying RPs may apply as well.

● Specialized Certification: Certification or advanced training through the Canadian Association for Child and Play Therapy (CACPT) / Play Therapy Canada, or the Association for Play Therapy (APT) is highly preferred.

● Experience: Proven experience working clinically with children and youth, specifically those with developmental diagnoses (such as Autism and ADHD) and mental health needs.

● Skills: Strong understanding of neurodiversity-affirming care, attachment theory, and trauma-informed practices. An entrepreneurial mindset suited for independent contract work.
