ABOUT THE CLINIC

Springboard Clinic is a place where neurodiverse individuals, their families, and the clinicians who support them feel seen, respected and energized by meaningful work. We specialize in ADHD and related mental health profiles and take a collaborative, whole-person approach to the care we provide.

Since opening our doors, our promise has been to offer people with ADHD:

• Insight into how their brains work in unique and interesting ways
• Support tailored to their needs and where they are in their journey
• Hope for a future free of barriers and a life filled with opportunity
• Power through recognizing their hidden strength and untapped potential
• Understanding that combines expertise with the instincts of the heart

With years of experience behind us, we’re excited to be growing – and we’re now looking for a part-time psychotherapist to join our team who are passionate about neurodiversity and client-centered care.

REQUIRED SKILLS:

• A Master’s degree in psychology, psychotherapy, social work, counselling, or a related mental health field is required.
• A successful candidate is a fully registered member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) or the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW), a regulatory body identified as able to deliver psychotherapy services in Ontario.
• 3-5 years of clinical/treatment experience working with individuals with a wide range of clinical presentations, including ADHD.
• Experience in providing treatment services to adults age 40+ and parents.
• Experience providing treatment services to individuals with ASD is an asset.
• A positive, non-judgmental, and inclusive approach to care and team work is essential.
