The Youth Mind Collective is a values-driven psychology practice based in Geelong, dedicated to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of children, adolescents, and their families. We provide compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming services including individualised therapy and comprehensive assessments, tailored to each young person's unique strengths and challenges.

We take a holistic and collaborative approach to care - fostering resilience, self-acceptance, and growth in a supportive environment where children and clinicians alike are seen, heard, and respected.

  • Deliver services under Medicare and/or NDIS, aligned with best practice and client goals
  • Maintain timely and ethical clinical records
  • Participate in regular supervision, professional development, and reflective practice

Required:

  • Full registration as a Psychologist with AHPRA
  • Experience working therapeutically with children, adolescents, and families
  • Proficiency in psychological assessments (e.g. WISC-V, WPPSI-IV, WIAT-III)
  • A neurodiversity-affirming, inclusive clinical approach
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Current WWCC, Police Check, professional insurances, and valid driver's licence
  • Eligible to provide services under Medicare

Preferred:

  • Experience with NDIS frameworks and/or school-based settings
  • Familiarity with ADOS-2 (desirable but not essential)
  • Commitment to trauma-informed and culturally responsive care
  • Membership with APS, AAPi, or similar
Why work with us?
