Psychological Assessment & Psychotherapy

Registered Psychologist - Assessment & Psychotherapy

New Moon Psychotherapy is a thriving Toronto-based group practice specializing in trauma, relationship (couples and family), and sex therapy.

Our team is authentic, thoughtful, and clinically sharp. We believe deeply in our clients’ capacity to heal. We don’t collude with avoidance or treat trauma survivors as fragile. Instead, we provide compassionate, structured care that helps clients build safety, develop agency, and move toward meaningful recovery.

Alongside our core clinical work, we also provide support to individuals who have been accused or convicted of sexual and gender-based violence.

We are now expanding our services to include psychological assessment and are looking for a Registered Psychologist with expertise in assessment to join our team.

A key focus of this position is psychological assessment, with the opportunity to maintain an individual and/or couples psychotherapy caseload based on your interests and client need.

If you’re an experienced psychologist who is passionate about assessment, trauma-focused care, and complex clinical work—and wants to grow alongside a collaborative clinical team,we’d love to hear from you.

Psychological Assessment

We are particularly seeking psychologists with experience providing:

- Adult ADHD assessments
- Adult autism assessments
- Forensic and risk assessments, including offender, recidivism, violence, sexual offending, and related risk assessments
- Psychodiagnostic and differential diagnostic assessments

Our clients often present with complex and overlapping concerns. Assessment needs may include:
- PTSD and other trauma-related disorders
- ADHD and autism
- Depression and mood disorders
- Anxiety disorders
- Personality disorders
- Sexual and behavioural concerns, including out-of-control sexual behaviour
- Complex and overlapping mental health presentations

Given the population we serve, we particularly value experience diagnosing trauma-related disorders and thoughtfully considering the impact of traumatic life experiences when conducting differential diagnosis.

You do not need to provide every type of assessment listed above. Expertise in ADHD, autism, and/or forensic assessment is particularly sought after, and psychologists are welcome to offer additional assessments within their training, authorized areas, and scope of competence.

Psychological assessment is a new service at New Moon, with a clear focus on ADHD, autism, forensic/risk, and psychodiagnostic assessment that complements our established work in trauma, relationships, and sexuality.

As we build this area, you’ll have an opportunity to bring your expertise to the development of our assessment services and help shape how this work grows within the practice.

Clinical & Psychotherapy Work





Our primary areas of clinical practice are trauma, relationship (couples and family), and sex therapy.

Psychologists interested in maintaining a psychotherapy caseload may work with individuals, couples, and/or families experiencing:

- PTSD, complex trauma, and sexual trauma

- Neurodivergence and its intersection with relationships, sexuality, and mental health
- Depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and other concerns that intersect with our primary areas of practice
- The psychological and relational impacts of being accused or convicted of sexual or gender-based violence

Depending on your training and interests, your clinical work may include individual psychotherapy, couples and family therapy, sex therapy, and trauma-focused psychotherapy.

- Wholeheartedly reject labels such as “difficult” or “resistant” and approach each client with curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to understand what is driving their presentation.

- Understand how trauma can shape clinical presentation and thoughtfully consider traumatic life experiences when making a diagnosis.
- Have expertise in one or more of our priority assessment areas: ADHD, autism, forensic/risk, or psychodiagnostic assessment.
- Are trained in trauma-focused approaches such as CPT, EMDR, IFS, DBR, or DBT-PTSD, if providing trauma psychotherapy.

- Provide sex-positive, culturally responsive, and affirming care across identities.
- Value professional autonomy while also enjoying consultation and collaboration with a community of thoughtful clinicians.
