Clinical Psychologist – Permanent Part-Time

Actualise Psychology Pty Ltd – Sydney CBD NSW

Actualise Psychology is seeking an experienced and thoughtful Clinical Psychologist to join our established Sydney CBD private practice and consultancy in a permanent part-time position.

This is a newly created role and an important appointment for our practice. We are looking for someone who wants more than simply a private-practice caseload - someone who values excellent clinical work, professional autonomy, thoughtful collaboration and the opportunity to become a significant long-term member of a growing practice.

We are at an exciting stage in the development of Actualise, with a focus on building a more connected and collaborative clinical team. This appointment will be an important part of that transition, offering the opportunity to contribute to the development of the practice rather than simply step into an established structure.

The position will commence at 2 days per week (Monday & Wednesday), with the intention of progressively increasing toward 3 - 4 days per week over time, subject to mutual agreement and practice growth.

For the right person, there is genuine scope for the role to develop beyond a clinical position into increasing involvement in the leadership and development of Actualise as opportunities emerge and the working relationship develops.

The role will primarily involve psychological assessment and therapy with an adult clinical population. Our clients present with a broad range of concerns, including anxiety and mood difficulties, trauma and attachment-related issues, adjustment and occupational difficulties, interpersonal and relationship concerns,



and more complex psychological presentations.

You will progressively develop a private-practice caseload through a combination of established practice referral pathways and new referrals. The practice works with a substantial military and emergency services population, so experience with, or an interest in working with, these client groups would be advantageous. We're focused on quality and sustainability rather than maximising appointment numbers. The role is intended to provide appropriate capacity for clinical administration, professional development, consultation and thoughtful clinical practice. Depending on your background and interests, there may also be opportunities to contribute to organisational psychology and consulting work over time, although the initial focus of the position will be clinical practice.
