Importantly, you'll have experience providing supervision, mentoring or professional leadership to other clinicians and be passionate about developing those around you. Being a Board Approved Supervisor is desirable.
For Senior Specialist Psychologist appointments, you'll demonstrate advanced clinical expertise, substantial experience managing complex and high-risk clients, and the ability to provide expert consultation, leadership and influence across psychology services.
