About the Opportunity
Lyra’s provider network is composed of in-person and virtual licensed counsellors or psychotherapists and coaches across the world. With our advanced matching technology, supportive provider platform, and opportunities for training and clinical consultation, being part of our network is an incredible chance to do what you love (like client care) with support for the things you don’t love (like self promotion and scheduling).
This opportunity is a great fit if you’re an independently licensed clinical therapist interested in providing culturally responsive, evidence-based therapy for children, adults, couples, and/or families. We encourage clinicians to apply who have experience with caseloads that include a comprehensive spectrum of mental health needs, from milder presentations to more complex and severe support. This opportunity is a great fit for providers seeking well-matched and motivated clients, administrative and marketing support, and easy invoicing with quick payments. The ability to work with clients in person through your private or group practice is strongly preferred. We are looking for clinicians who are able to work with clients in-person and online in Auckland.
Requirements:
- Master’s from a clinical track (e.g., MA, MC, MSc, MRFT, MSW) and licensed to practice counselling in your jurisdiction
- 3 + years post graduate experience providing structured counselling/psychotherapy.
- Current full registration status with relevant licensing board or professional association for your location(s) of practice (i.e., able to work independently, without supervision from a licensed supervisor) without current, past, or pending disciplinary action
- Experience and commitment to providing evidence-based treatments (e.g., ACT, CBT, CPT, DBT) and clinical best practices (e.g., measurement based care, promoting skills practice)
- Preference will be given to providers who specialize with trauma, neurodiversity, women’s health, and chronic or acute health conditions
- Ability to work with adults; preference given to providers who also work with children, couples and families.
- Must have office space with ability to see clients in person
- Experience managing risk and responding to clinical crises, as needed
- Proficient in providing counselling in multiple languages an asset.
