This is a long-term opportunity for someone ready to commit to at least one year while developing a lasting career with us. About us Lighthouse Wellness Centre is a multidisciplinary practice where counselling, therapeutic play, psychological services, Brainspotting, and mediation come together under one roof. We work with individuals, couples, and families from age 3 up, and that range shapes how we hire and how our team supports one another. As independent practitioners, you build and run your own practice here, with a team around you for consultation, collaboration, and support along the way. Our work culture We genuinely care about each other's success here, not just our own. You'll find a team that's quick to share insight across disciplines, slow to judge, and always willing to talk through a tricky case over coffee.

Whether you need to adjust your hours around family life, want a second opinion on a difficult session, or just need someone to check in with at the end of a hard week, you're not on your own.
