Imagine being able to make a meaningful impact on the mental health and wellbeing of young people living in some of Australia's most remote communities, all while working remotely from your preferred location.

Flying headspace is seeking an experienced Mental Health Clinician to join our team in a 0.5 FTE (part-time), fully remote Telehealth position. This role is ideal for a clinician who thrives in a virtual environment, is passionate about youth mental health, and has demonstrated experience delivering quality therapeutic interventions through telehealth platforms. The role provides assessment, intervention,



care coordination and ongoing therapeutic support to young people aged 12-25 years across regional and remote South Australian communities through telehealth and outreach service models.

Why This Role Is Different

This isn't your typical clinician role.

You'll provide vital mental health support to young people who may otherwise face significant barriers to accessing care due to their location. Working within the headspace model and alongside the Royal Flying Doctor Service, you'll help ensure young people receive timely, accessible and evidence-based support, regardless of where they live.

Most importantly, you'll do it from a fully remote working setting, supported by an experienced multidisciplinary team.

- Deliver evidence-based therapeutic interventions to young people aged 12-25 years.
- Conduct comprehensive mental health, psychosocial and risk assessments.
- Develop and review individual care plans and therapeutic goals.
- Provide ongoing counselling and therapeutic support via telehealth.
- Undertake suicide risk assessments, safety planning and risk management activities.
- Coordinate referrals and support young people to access additional services when required.
- Collaborate closely with the Clinical Lead and multidisciplinary team to achieve positive outcomes for young people.

Desired Skills And Experience What We're Looking For Essential

- Tertiary qualifications in Psychology, Social Work, Occupational Therapy, Mental Health Nursing or a related discipline.
- Relevant professional registration or accreditation.
- Demonstrated experience delivering therapeutic interventions to young people.
- Proven clinical telehealth experience,



including delivering assessments, interventions and ongoing therapeutic support in a virtual environment.
- Experience conducting mental health assessments, risk assessments and safety planning.
- Strong communication, engagement and relationship-building skills.
- Ability to work autonomously while remaining connected within a multidisciplinary team.

Highly Regarded

- Experience within the headspace model.
- Experience supporting young people in regional, rural or remote communities.
- Experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people and communities.

Why Join Youturn? At Youturn, you'll join an organisation that genuinely values people, innovation and impact.

We Offer

- Fully remote working arrangement
- Flexible part-time hours (0.5 FTE)
- Salary packaging benefits to maximise your take-home pay
- Wellbeing Days that renew annually from 1 July
- Ongoing professional development and clinical supervision
- Opportunity to support young people who may otherwise struggle to access mental health services
- A collaborative and supportive multidisciplinary team culture

Make an Impact From Anywhere If you're an experienced clinician who is confident delivering high-quality care via telehealth and passionate about improving access to mental health support for young people, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and help bring mental health support to young people, wherever they are.
