Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia Gidget Foundation Full time $100,000 - $120,000 per year

Experienced Psychologist/Accredited Mental Health Social Worker/Mental Health O.T's/Mental Health Nurses & Social Workers to work within our Perinatal Mental Health Face to Face Location in Berry Springs, NT

We offer immediate or flexible start dates, client sourcing, administrative support and service promotion. No rental or overheads contribution is required.

The Position:

We're looking for Clinical Psychologists, Registered Psychologists, Accredited Mental Health Social Workers, Mental Health Occupational Therapists, Mental Health Nurses and Social Workers to deliver psychological support to expectant and new parents at our soon to be established Gidget House site in Berry Springs, located in Remote Territory Healthcare. Our specialist perinatal (conception to one year post-partum) clinicians provide a wide range of individual, couple and parent-infant therapies to women and their partners.  In addition to pre-conception counselling, we offer services to those experiencing, or at risk of developing, perinatal depressive, anxiety and trauma or stressor-related disorders.  Support is also provided to women and their partners who have experienced a pregnancy or childbirth-related loss, e.g: stillbirth, miscarriage or termination.

The service is delivered through Medicare's Better Access Initiative and the remuneration for clinicians is therefore the affiliated Medicare Rebate.

Gidget Foundation Australia offers more than $20k in annual benefits, including:

  • Free Supervision (group and individual) and free professional development CPD opportunities.
  • Access to free specialist PMH seminars & all costs covered to attend the GFA PMH Conference.
  • Full-time or multiple part time contractor positions
  • Centralised appointment booking management and free administrative support
  • Marketing, website, service promotion and free room rental
  • Free parking & travel costs where appropriate
  • Opportunity to specialise in perinatal mental health and early intervention with PHM specialists

Requirements:

·     Demonstrated proficiency in comprehensive psychological assessment and evidence-based therapy relevant to expectant and new parents with perinatal mental health issues.

·     AHPRA registration with endorsements in psychology or accreditation as a mental health social worker if relevant.

·     At least 3 years post-registration experience, with specific experience working with perinatal clients or in a complementary field. (For social workers, demonstrated independent caseload management experience with perinatal clients prior to accreditation may be considered).

·     Demonstrated ability to work within a recovery-oriented model, utilising a person/family centred approach.

·     Demonstrated high level communication, interpersonal and problem-solving skills.

·     Ability to work independently under approved professional supervision.

·     Effective caseload management.

If this role sounds like a role you would be interested in, but you don't have the experience, we also offer a Perinatal & Infant Mental Health Training program.  This is a free perinatal skills development program which is available to clinicians with general mental health experience.

The Foundation:

Gidget Foundation Australia is a not-for-profit organisation that supports the emotional wellbeing of expectant and new parents.

"Gidget" was the nickname of a vibrant young mother who tragically took her own life while suffering postnatal depression. She hid her suffering from even her loving family and friends. Together, they created Gidget Foundation Australia determined that what happened to Gidget would not happen to others.

To Apply :

Please submit your resume and cover letter to Referees will be sought upon short list completion.
