Kelowna Counselling Job (and/or online counselling job)

We are looking to add 1-2 Registered Clinical Counsellors to our amazing team. We are a Kelowna mental health clinic hiring counsellors, however, we also consider remote and online therapists as well. Please see the posting below and contact me at [email protected] to apply. We look forward to hearing from you 🙂

Alive Counselling consists of a team of therapists offering quality mental health care to those throughout Kelowna and across British Columbia through in-person, Walk and Talk Therapy, and Online Counselling.

We are looking to hire ONE to TWO Registered Clinical Counsellors. One for our Kelowna team, but you could be remote as well. All applicants must hold a Masters degree in Counselling Psychology or equivalent and be in good-standing with the BCACC (no exceptions). The successful applicant will be organized, professional, and able to work seeing clients of varying ages with varying issues. Our clinic offers individual, couples, family, and group therapy, however, the applicant does not have to offer all of these and may chose to only offer one such as individual therapy. Alive Counselling serves a variety of presenting issues, but we want to find the best fit for you and your clients to best serve you as a clinician and of course our clients. We mainly work in anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, EMDR, couples counselling, postpartum and maternal mental health care, sports performance, grief & loss, and more. We love to help people get “unstuck” and come more alive in their lives. As therapists, we each offer different specialties and approaches, so it is a diverse team to learn from. As a clinical supervisor with the University of British Columbia, there is leadership potential to be a clinical supervisor of graduate students and to be involved in many community events as part of our mental health charity partnership with Third Space Charity.

Experience is preferred, but it is not a requirement. New graduates are welcome to apply. Team meetings, trainings, and supervision is done monthly, so the applicant will feel supported by the team as they grow as a counsellor. This position is as an Independent Contractor, so the successful applicant can make their own schedule. There is no set minimum number of hours per week, but most of our counsellors work approximately 20 hours per week and their availability is determined in the hiring process.
