Clinical Psychologist, Contractor or Employee

Mindkit Psychology

Mindkit Psychology is a small, neurodivergent-led private practice based in Melbourne and Australia-wide via telehealth. We offer on-site sessions from Melbourne-based rooms and nationwide telehealth.

We are hiring our first new team members to help shape the growth of a practice built on authentic, lived experience and affirming care. This position can be offered as either a contractor agreement or a permanent employee role, depending on your preference. We anticipate appointing up to two clinicians if the right people apply.

About the role

We are seeking a Clinical Psychologist with a passion for working with neurodivergent adults. Training and experience in trauma-informed modalities are important, for example Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing and parts work such as Internal Family Systems. Skill in comprehensive Attention-Deficit, Hyperactivity Disorder and Autism assessments is also important.

This role suits a clinician who enjoys variety and wants a dynamic caseload that combines in-depth therapy with diagnostic assessment. You will have autonomy over your caseload and be part of a supportive, collaborative, proudly neurodivergent team.

The caseload and number of working days are flexible, minimum two days per week, and can be negotiated to create a sustainable and fulfilling role for the right candidate. We are open to therapy-only or assessment-only positions if that is your preference. Telehealth is available Australia-wide.

Key responsibilities

• Provide high-quality, neurodiversity-affirming psychotherapy to adult clients.
• Use trauma-informed modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing and parts work, for example Internal Family Systems.
• Conduct comprehensive, strengths-based diagnostic assessments for Autism and Attention-Deficit, Hyperactivity Disorder.
• Manage your caseload with confidence and appropriate independence.
• Maintain clear, timely notes and documentation, supported by artificial intelligence tools.
• Engage in supervision and contribute to a collaborative team culture.

Who we are looking for

• Lived experience of neurodivergence: We strongly encourage applications from psychologists with lived experience.
• Registration and endorsement: You must be fully registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency. Endorsement as a Clinical Psychologist is strongly preferred.
• Trauma-informed skills: Evidence-based trauma therapies are part of your toolkit. Specific expertise in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing and parts work is highly desirable, and willingness to train further will be considered.
• Neurodivergent assessment capability: You have experience conducting, interpreting, and writing up gold-standard Autism and Attention-Deficit, Hyperactivity Disorder assessments from a neurodiversity-affirming perspective.
• Values fit: You work from a strengths-based, empowering, non-pathologising lens.
• Co-occurring presentations: Experience with eating disorders and complex trauma is a strong asset.

• Authentic culture: Be your true self in a workplace that understands and accommodates needs.
• Comprehensive support and streamlined workflow: Full administrative management of bookings, billing, and enquiries, plus access to our clinical assistant who formats diagnostic reports and manages clinical correspondence.

• Flexible structure and competitive compensation: Two remuneration pathways are available.
