Clinician

William Taylor Learning Centre | Full-Time | Calgary, Alberta

Bring clinical skill, curiosity, and creativity into a dynamic learning environment where mental health treatment is integrated with education.

About the Role

Wood’s Homes is seeking a skilled and collaborative Clinician to join the William Taylor Learning Centre School-Based Mental Health Program. Working in partnership with the Calgary Board of Education, you will support children, youth, and families within a dynamic learning environment where education and mental health treatment come together.

This role is ideal for a graduate-level clinical professional who values relationship-based practice, interdisciplinary teamwork, and creative approaches to treatment. You will provide direct clinical services while working closely with young people, families, school staff, program colleagues, and community partners to promote meaningful progress.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

- School-based mental health services: provide treatment in an environment where clinical care and learning are closely connected.
- A dynamic learning environment: adapt your approach to the strengths, needs, and circumstances of each young person and family.
- Partnership in practice: work collaboratively with the Calgary Board of Education and an interdisciplinary program team.
- Youth and family work: deliver family, individual, and group interventions and therapy.
- Treatment with creativity: use thoughtful, flexible, and evidence-informed approaches to engage young people and support change.
- Skilled growth: contribute to consultation, training, specialized projects, and your own ongoing development.

Key Responsibilities
- Provide direct treatment services to a caseload of children, youth, and families through family, individual, and group intervention and therapy.




- Complete assigned client assessments and prepare written assessment reports in accordance with case management guidelines.
- Maintain timely, high-quality records of ongoing clinical work in accordance with professional and organizational requirements.
- Work as an active member of interdisciplinary clinical and school-based teams.
- Build strong, respectful relationships with youth, families, school partners, community resources, and program colleagues.
- Provide clinical consultation to Wood’s Homes programs as assigned and help strengthen clinical skill and knowledge.
- Support staff, practicum student, and community professional training when requested.
- Communicate actively with community resources regarding Wood’s Homes clients and programs.
- Participate in research and specialized projects as assigned.
- Engage actively in clinical and administrative supervision and ongoing professional development.
- Complete required health and safety training and promptly report hazards, unsafe conditions, and incidents.

What You Bring
- A master’s or PhD degree in Psychology, Social Work, Family Nursing, Art Therapy, or a related field.
- Current registration, or active pursuit of registration or certification, with the appropriate professional association.
- Where applicable, eligibility for licensure under Alberta’s Health Professions Act and a commitment to professional standards, guidelines, and ethics.
- Demonstrated clinical experience, with supervisory and program development experience considered an asset.




- Sound clinical judgment and the ability to respond effectively to diverse program and client needs.
- Strong relationship-building skills and emotional intelligence.
- Professional, clear, and timely written and verbal communication.
- The ability to work collaboratively, make informed decisions, and contribute positively within a dynamic environment.
- The ability to produce timely, high-quality clinical documentation and reports.

Additional Requirements
- Current proof of professional registration may be required for certain degrees or disciplines.
- A valid Alberta Class 5 or Class 5 GDL driver’s license, automobile insurance with $2 million liability coverage, and a driver’s abstract with no more than six demerits.
- Ability to work in settings that may include schools, community locations, and other program environments.
- Comfort working in situations that may involve emotional intensity, conflict, or crisis.

Who Will Thrive Here You are a grounded and creative clinician who sees young people and families as partners in treatment. You enjoy clinical work that is active, relational, and connected to the realities of a school day. You can bring structure and sound judgment while remaining flexible, curious, and responsive. Most importantly, you want your work to help young people participate more fully in learning, relationships, and community life.
