Psychologist | Clinical Lead - Assessment

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 current 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 an experienced psychologist with a passion for high-quality, affirming psychological assessment to take a leading clinical role within our established and growing Testing Clinic.

We are seeking a Clinic Lead – Assessment Psychologist who can combine their assessment expertise with the rewarding work of supervision, clinical consultation and quality improvement. You will work alongside psychologists providing Autism, ADHD, learning and cognitive assessments, supporting clinicians to deliver thoughtful, evidence-based assessments that genuinely help clients and families understand themselves, recognise their strengths and identify supports that may be helpful.

This is not necessarily an assessment-only role. If you enjoy maintaining a therapeutic caseload alongside assessment and supervision work, we would be very happy to design a role that gives you that balance.

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

Neurodivergence, including Autism and ADHD

Supporting clients from diverse backgrounds, including Christian clients seeking faith-aligned care

Whether we are providing therapy or assessment, our approach is grounded in understanding the whole person in the context of their strengths, experiences, relationships, environment, development and individual ways of experiencing and navigating the world.

Our assessment work is collaborative, evidence-based and neurodiversity-affirming. We believe assessment should go beyond test scores and diagnostic criteria to provide a meaningful understanding of each person's individual profile, including their strengths, differences and support needs. Our multidisciplinary team of psychologists, speech pathologists, dietitians and a paediatrician also creates opportunities for interdisciplinary consultation when understanding complex presentations.

In our therapeutic work, we integrate relational approaches—such as schema therapy, attachment-based interventions, and psychodynamic principles—with skills-based approaches, including CBT, ACT, and DBT. Across both assessment and therapy, our approach is trauma-informed,



neurodiversity-affirming, fat-positive and culturally responsive. We value lived experience perspectives alongside research and clinical expertise and seek to work collaboratively with clients rather than positioning the clinician as the sole expert on their experience.

If this way of thinking about assessment, therapy and person-centred healthcare resonates with you, we’d love to hear from you.

Lead and Support Excellence in Psychological Assessment

As Clinical Lead – Assessment Psychologist, you will be a source of clinical expertise within our Testing Clinic, providing supervision, consultation and guidance to psychologists undertaking assessment work. You will contribute to high-quality, consistent and affirming assessment practice through report review, clinical consultation and the ongoing development of our assessment resources and processes.

Alongside your clinical leadership responsibilities, you will continue to provide assessments within your areas of expertise, with the option to maintain a therapeutic caseload if you enjoy a mix of assessment and therapy.

As our Testing Clinic grows, there may be scope for the role to evolve to include broader service leadership and operational responsibilities. At present, operational responsibility remains with an existing member of our leadership team, allowing this role to focus on clinical excellence, supervision and assessment practice.

Build Your Career, Your Way

We recognise that career satisfaction looks different for everyone, so we work with our psychologists to design roles that align with their passions and aspirations.
