Company Description

Health & Happiness: Counselling and Wellness is a growing private counselling clinic located in Vaughan, Ontario. Since opening in 2019, we have built a strong reputation for providing compassionate, practical, and evidence-based mental health care for children, teens, adults, couples, and families.

As our clinic continues to grow, we are excited to introduce a brand-new service: comprehensive psychological assessment and diagnosis. This is a significant milestone for our practice, and we are looking for the right psychologist to help shape and grow this service alongside us.

Our team includes clinicians with expertise in neurodiversity, including ADHD and autism, as well as play therapy, couples therapy, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. We believe that excellent client care starts with an excellent team culture.

One of the things that makes our clinic different is how we work together. We value collaboration over competition. When clinicians are not with clients, our doors are open (unless the hallway white noise machines are on!). Questions are encouraged, ideas are shared, and everyone is supported. We genuinely enjoy helping one another provide the best possible care.

We are also proud of our stability. Staff turnover has been exceptionally low because we work hard to create an environment where clinicians feel respected, supported, and trusted.

Role Description
