JOB DESCRIPTION
Job Description
Under the limited direction of the Manager, CHIC Psychology and Counselling Service, you will play a vital role in promoting positive client outcomes through the delivery of high-quality psychological assessment, intervention and consultation services. You will provide care to clients engaged in inpatient and ambulatory rehabilitation, aged care services, and the Pain Management Unit, supporting individuals to achieve improved health, wellbeing and quality of life.
In this role, you will apply your clinical knowledge and skills across a diverse range of presentations, delivering both individual and group-based interventions. You will work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams, contribute to health promotion and education activities, and develop strong professional networks to support integrated care.
The successful applicant will exercise independent professional judgement in routine clinical matters and undertake more complex or novel clinical tasks with skilled supervision and support, which will decrease as expertise and experience develop.
This position offers an excellent opportunity to further develop your clinical skills across rehabilitation, aged care, chronic pain and community health settings while contributing to a service committed to evidence-based practice and person-centred care. You will also have opportunities to participate in supervision, mentoring and training activities, supporting the ongoing development of colleagues and students where required.
