Child & Family Therapist (RP, RSW, CPsych, CYW) Clinical Team Full Time Ancaster, ON $90,000
- $110,000 CAD per year We’re fishing with a very particular kind of bait, because we’re looking for a very particular kind of therapist. If you have been longing for a way to practice that aligns with your values and offers more freedom and creativity than you can typically find in traditional therapeutic clinics
- then read on … and may the force be with you NowWhat is a flexible, supportive, and joyful working environment, with our main family site located in a beautiful big house in downtown Ancaster serving mainly children and families, and our newer, accessible satellite site in the Ancaster Business Park serving mainly our teen and adult psychotherapy clients. We’re currently celebrating our 10th year of existence, and we are excited about the next stage of our evolution. This position is emerging out of our plan to strategically move our senior therapists up into true supervision roles. We are a neuro-inclusive, out-of-the-box, alternative clinic that provides holistic and creative clinical, social, and educational support to humans across the life span in a range of domains, including general counselling and psychotherapy (depression, trauma, anxiety, OCD, transition, loss, identity, career change/burnout & return to work, gender navigation etc) as well as ADHD & executive function, social communication, emotion regulation, sex and relationships, and divorce/separation care. We’re truly team-oriented
- consulting and referring regularly across disciplines to build effective support plans that consider the whole person and their family context. Each professional is valued for their expertise and contribution, and enjoys a balance of autonomy and team support. Fair warning: we’re a little … different.



Many of us are neurospicy ourselves (we’ve got a sampling of all the flavours), and we co-create our work environment to try to leverage each person’s strengths and scaffold their weaker spots. We are continually working towards a truly developmental, family-systems approach across all domains, demographics and practice areas, leveraging and adapting the best bits out of a variety of modalities. We want to attract working partners who are passionate about all people as whole and worthy humans; who don’t view folk as fix-it projects, but who will champion ‘minds of all kinds’ creatively and compassionately. We customize support plans to meet the needs of each family that comes through our doors
- which takes real maturity, willingness, and flexibility from our team. We’re not the right workplace for everyone
- and that’s OK. We are committed to holding inclusive, affirming, and non-judgmental space for both staff and clients, approaching therapy with a strong developmental & relationship-driven lens. We value radical honesty and epic bravery. We have a particular focus on removing the barriers that can hinder access to therapeutic services for neurodivergent folk, and our passion is helping people process challenges helpfully and build the skills they need to act effectively so they can enjoy a rich and meaningful life
- whatever that looks like for them.
