Transform Mental Healthcare with Us

At The Talbot Centre, we are not just part of the healthcare system—we are here to transform it. We believe every person deserves to know their worth, feel a sense of belonging, and be supported to grow into their full potential. Our mission is to challenge the status quo and pioneer a new kind of person-centred care—one that is deeply human, accessible, and empowering. We are reimagining healthcare, breaking down barriers, and creating real change for individuals, families, and communities.

If you're driven by purpose and want to be part of something bigger, this is where you belong.

This is an exciting opportunity for a values-driven, growth-oriented psychologist who is looking for a unique opportunity to combine clinical practice with meaningful supervision and leadership. As our team continues to grow, we are seeking psychologists who would like to combine their clinical expertise with the rewarding work of supervision in a supportive, collaborative environment.

Be Part of a Movement, Not Just a Workplace: Our Approach to HealthCare

At The Talbot Centre, we are focused on providing holistic, inclusive, and affirming care to individuals with a range of complex mental health needs. Our niche areas of focus include:

• Eating and feeding disorders
• Obsessive-compulsive and related disorders
• Trauma and complex presentations
• Anxiety presentations
• Child and family mental health
• Supporting clients from diverse backgrounds, including neurodivergent folk and Christian clients seeking faith-aligned care

We integrate relational approaches—such as schema therapy, attachment-based interventions, and psychodynamic principles—with skills-based approaches, including CBT, ACT, and DBT. This allows us to support clients in understanding and transforming underlying patterns while equipping them with practical tools to navigate challenges. If this balanced, integrative approach resonates with you, we'd love to hear from you.

Our multidisciplinary team provides collaborative, whole-person care that adapts to the needs of each individual. We are committed to reducing stigma, challenging outdated treatment models, and fostering autonomy in recovery and mental well-being. Our approach is trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, fat-positive and culturally responsive, ensuring every client feels seen, heard, and supported. We value lived experience perspectives alongside research and clinical expertise, ensuring our work is both evidence-based and deeply human.

If you are passionate about delivering meaningful care in an environment that values innovation and inclusivity, we'd love to hear from you.

Build Your Career, Your Way

At The Talbot Centre, we recognise that career satisfaction looks different for everyone. Through our Career by DesignTM framework, we work with each psychologist to craft a role that aligns with their professional passions and aspirations whether that's a greater focus on supervision, clinical work, training, or research. The balance between supervision and client work will be collaboratively designed to reflect both organisational needs and your individual passions, strengths, and career goals.

We believe excellent supervision is essential to ethical, sustainable psychology practice. That's why supervision time isn't something squeezed in around your other work; it's protected and valued as a core part of your role. You'll have dedicated time to provide high-quality supervision, reflect, and grow, within a culture that genuinely prioritises clinician wellbeing and burnout prevention.

We value supervision as a cornerstone of high-quality care and professional wellbeing. We have clear structures and systems in place to ensure supervision remains distinct from management functions and to protect the integrity and safety of the supervisory relationship. You will be supported by our established internal supervision team, including access to supervision of supervision within an interdisciplinary group of experienced supervisors.

Clinical experience in one or more of our niche practice areas and the capacity to provide supervision in these domains is highly desirable. For suitably experienced supervisors, there is also scope to be involved in the development and delivery of training, research projects, or to lead supervisor training and masterclasses.

We are open to applications from experienced supervisors, newly endorsed supervisors, and psychologists interested in taking their first steps into supervision (with full training and support provided).
