Full job description

Application process - Please apply solely through this job posting to connect to our HR team, and do not email our general administrative team with cover letters/resumes. Thank you in advance!

About us

We collaborate with families to improve the health of their relationships and functionality of their co-parent partnerships. We provide trauma-aware, compassionate, consent-based, cost-efficient, and accessible services to families navigating heightened levels of conflict and/or court involvement.

Our services include:

Individual counselling + coaching
Co-parent counselling + coaching
Family counselling
Child/youth counselling
Child/play therapy
Family Mediation
Child-inclusive family mediation
Parenting time supervision + observation

The services that we provide are 100% online for adults (if they so wish and/or in-person), and often in-person for young adults/youth, and children.

We are seeking collaborative, creative, strategic, knowledge-seeking, and child-centric clinical mental health professionals to join our growing team as independent associates/contractors.

We provide the entire infrastructure for booking, client management, record management, session hosting platform, etc. to our team members.

Successful candidates will provide conflict reduction strategies, evidence-based therapeutic support, and extensive resources to co-parents (individually and/or collaboratively), and their broad family system. These counselling roles require a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by family law-involved families, family violence/intimate partner violence, relationship ruptures, child protection agency involvement, and law enforcement involvement.

Our company is a safe space for the professionals and the clients we work with. We're neuro-affirming, allies across a wide spectrum, diversity-accommodating and constantly seeking formal as well as humanistic training to ensure we're doing our best to provide equitable opportunity for each person to grow into their best self. Candidates who share these attributes in their practice will likely ease into a role with us.

Please note: Applicants must have the following:

RCC, CCC, or RSW designation with their applicable governing/regulatory body
Registered and in good standing with the appropriate regulatory body (ex. BC Association of Clinical Counsellors, BC College of Social Workers, Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association, or College of Psychologists of BC)
Minimum of 5 years working with divorcing/separated families, "high conflict" families or personalities, and/or family justice conflicts
Experience/training regarding the impact of family law involvement and co-parenting conflict on children
Experience/training regarding the impact of family law involvement on co-parents
Experience/training in identifying and mitigating cognitive bias, and countertransference
Education/training regarding family violence and intimate partner violence
Experience/training regarding working with survivors of family violence/intimate partner violence
Experience/training regarding working with causers of harm (family violence perpetrators)
Education/training regarding mediation and conflict dispute resolution
Education/training regarding child development and adverse childhood experiences
Education training regarding neuro-affirming practices for neurodivergent clients
Working knowledge of the family law system (Provincial and Supreme Court)
Working knowledge of the family law process
Clear criminal record check
Clear vulnerable sector check
Maintenance of professional liability insurance (minimum of two million)

Responsibilities

Conduct virtual/online individual and/or collaborative counseling sessions
Provide trauma-informed counseling using modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Neuro-Affirming, Somatic Experiencing, Compassionate Inquiry, and other evidence-based practices.
Provide ongoing support and psychoeducation to clients, helping them understand the effects of adverse childhood experiences, trauma, family law involvement, relationship ruptures etc.
Coordinate and collaborate with other professionals and emergency services to ensure a coordinated response in moments of crisis
Advocate for the health of relationships within the family within a consent framework
Prepare and submit reports, progress notes, and treatment summaries as required by the company and/or regulatory bodies
Provide case management and development treatment plans
Stay current with developments in trauma-informed care, family systems support, and treatment through continuous education and training
Collaborate with a broad co-lab company team to ensure comprehensive/wrap-around resources are provided to each client/family
Uphold applicable regulatory/governing body standards

*Lived experience is considered an asset.

*Candidates who hold membership with the Hear the Child Society, the Parenting Coordinator Roster, the Society for Children and Youth or a collaborative practice group will be given high consideration

*Candidates with compassionate inquiry, somatic experiencing and/or neuro-affirming approaches will also be given high consideration

Please note:

Our team does not use "alienation" terminology because the obstruction of a relationship with a safe parent is coercion and it is a form of family violence.

We also do not use the term reunification because, regardless of a child is seeing or speaking to a parent they do have a relationship with them. In our Our Family Support Program, we work from a consent-based, non-coercive and compassionate framework to improve the health of relationships and the functionality of co-parent partnerships. This often includes parents/children who currently have relationships that are struggling for a variety of different reasons.

We believe strongly that there are a multitude of contributing factors to relationship ruptures or "resist / refusal" dynamics with children. There is no force, surprise or coercion in our work with children. It is essential that children are provided mental health professionals that instills, maintain or reconstruct a positive perception of mental health/helping professionals.

Repair of relationship that are unhealthy is best done in a trauma-aware and consent-based framework and with careful consideration and support of each individual family member.
