At True Living Counselling & Coaching, we believe that meaningful care begins before a client ever enters the therapy room. Every phone call, email, and welcome at the front desk is an opportunity to help someone feel comfortable, supported, and connected.
We're looking for a warm, organized, and dependable Client Care & Administrative Assistant to join our growing counselling practice. Working alongside our existing Client Care & Office Coordinator, you'll help ensure our clients feel welcomed, our therapists feel supported, and our clinic runs smoothly throughout the day.
This is a great prospect for someone who enjoys connecting with people, keeping things organized, and being part of a team that makes a meaningful difference in people's lives.
You'll have an established coordinator to work alongside, with shared responsibilities, clear communication, and opportunities to contribute to the day-to-day success of our practice.
