RX Active Health are seeking a highly capable Psychologist or Clinical Psychologist to join our multidisciplinary health team in Shellharbour.
We are opening a new purpose-built allied health building next door to our current location designed to support high-quality, professional care. The psychology rooms will be calm, inviting, private, and soundproof, creating a dedicated therapeutic space where clients feel safe, supported, and able to fully engage in the process.
This role is suited to a psychologist who has already built strong experience in private practice and is now looking for something more integrated, professional, and clinically meaningful.
You may have enjoyed your career to date, built strong results with your client base, and developed loyal clients in your current or previous workplaces. But you are now looking for a setting where psychology sits within a broader health model — not isolated from it.
RX Active Health is predominantly a physiotherapy clinic with six physiotherapists, with more allied health services to come. You will work with clients who have psychological needs within a medical and physical health setting, including people managing acute pain, persistent pain, injuries, trauma, chronic conditions, and barriers to exercise, confidence, consistency, and long-term health change.
This role is not isolated session-based psychology. Your work will directly support the cognitive, emotional, and behavioural components that influence recovery, self-management, exercise participation, and long-term outcomes.
As the first psychologist within RX Active Health, you will play a key role in shaping how psychology is integrated into our broader model of care.
Why this role is different
Rather than stepping into a standard psychology room and building everything from scratch, you will be joining an established multidisciplinary health business with a strong client base and clear demand for psychological support.
Key selling points of the role include:
- A mixed caseload with high-quality clients
- A strong medical and allied health referral base
- Clients with psychological needs linked to pain, injury, trauma, stress, chronic conditions, and health behaviour change
- Collaboration with physiotherapists and exercise professionals
- A calm, professional, soundproof psychology room in a purpose-built allied health building
- Administration and billing support
- A true team environment, rather than isolated solo practice
- Daily interaction with directors, clinicians, and management
- Quarterly and annual team-building days
- A structure that supports income growth through salary plus commission
- Protected lunch breaks, with patients not booked into that space
What you will be doing
You will be responsible for:
- Conducting comprehensive psychological assessments
- Developing tailored, evidence-based treatment plans
- Delivering psychological interventions such as CBT, ACT, pain education, behavioural strategies, and other evidence-based approaches within your scope
- Supporting clients with psychological barriers that impact pain, injury recovery, rehabilitation, exercise participation, stress, lifestyle change, and long-term health
- Working with clients experiencing acute pain, persistent pain, trauma, chronic health conditions, and nervous system dysregulation
- Collaborating with physiotherapists and exercise professionals to support shared client outcomes
- Maintaining accurate clinical records in line with professional and regulatory standards
- Contributing to the development of psychology services within RX Physiotherapy and Hustle Hut Health
- Helping build a model of care where psychology is practical, integrated, outcome-focused, and connected to real-world behaviour change
Who we are looking for
We are looking for someone who is clinically strong, emotionally mature, and aligned with long-term client outcomes.
The ideal applicant will have:
- At least 5 years’ private practice experience in Australia as a Psychologist or Clinical Psychologist
- Current unrestricted AHPRA registration as a Psychologist or Clinical Psychologist
- Previous experience achieving strong outcomes with a loyal client base
- Experience or genuine interest in working within a multidisciplinary team
- Experience or genuine interest in working with medical and allied health populations
- Confidence supporting clients with pain, injury, trauma, chronic conditions, anxiety, stress, and behaviour change
- Strong assessment and treatment planning skills
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Strong clinical documentation standards
- A solid work ethic
- A growth-oriented mindset
- A commitment to ongoing CPD,
clinical supervision, mentoring, or peer supervision
- Interest in being part of a team-based clinic, especially if previous roles have felt professionally isolated
What we offer
At RX Active Health, you are not stepping into a standard clinic room with no support around you.
You will be joining an established health and wellness business with integrated services, a strong referral base, and clients who are already engaged in improving their health.
We offer
- Full-time or part-time role options
- A dedicated psychology room within a new purpose-built allied health building
- A calm, skilled, inviting, private, and soundproof clinical environment
- A consistent and growing internal referral base
- Administration and billing support
- Collaboration with five physiotherapists and exercise professionals
- A caseload with meaningful medical, pain, injury, trauma, and behaviour-change elements
- A high-quality client base already engaged in long-term health outcomes
- Opportunity to shape the future of psychology services within the business
- A role with genuine influence, autonomy, and growth potential
- Salary stability with commission upside
- Protected lunch breaks
- Quarterly and annual team-building days
- A workplace that values evidence-based care, clinical standards, and real-world outcomes
Remuneration
This role offers a base salary plus commission for employees, with a straight commission structure available for contractors.
The employee structure is designed to provide income stability while also rewarding productivity, client retention, clinical impact, and contribution to the growth of the psychology service.
Remuneration will be discussed based on experience, seniority, registration type, and clinical capability.
