  • Working effectively within a community-based setting to respond to young people in crisis
  • Applying advanced reasoning skills and independent professional judgment when dealing with complex clinical situations

To be successful in this role, you will require:

  • Current full registration with the Psychology Board of Australia with a four-year degree in psychology or higher qualification deemed equivalent by the employer
  • Extensive postgraduate clinical experience providing evidence-based assessment and treatment for children and/or adolescents and their families
  • Ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team to accomplish service goals and improved care and outcomes for children, young people, and their families/carers
  • Highly developed written and verbal communication skills and competence in the use of information technology systems
  • Ability to initiate, lead, and complete quality improvement initiatives and service enhancement activities with other staff
  • Contemporary experience and knowledge of psychological practice, as well as demonstrated understanding of the principles of trauma-informed care and its application when working with children/adolescents and families
