Job description

IF THIS IS YOU:

You are a licensed mental health practitioner with experience and mad skills! From your first session to the last, you love doing psychotherapy. You believe in conducting your services in a professional, ethical, well trained, and deeply caring way. You are a masterful communicator. You have excellent boundaries. You communicate well in writing. You follow instructions well, and take pride in doing a good job, through-and-through.

You are naturally outgoing and your clients find you easy to connect with. You are a badass at treating anxiety, depression, or both, and you have a clearly-established track record of helping anxiety or depression sufferers get out of their own way and back into their joy of living, quickly, and effectively. You get in, do the work, and discharge your clients. When a client has done their work with you and has accomplished their therapy goals, there is NO better feeling! You may have also recognized that trauma is kind of at the heart of just about everything. You have either learned about trauma-based therapies, yourself, or, you are keen to learn more, and to start to work within the trauma sphere, as you recognize that this deeper level of understanding will transform you into a fully masterful therapist.

You are not a lone wolf. You really value being a part of a team, especially when partnered with others from whom you can learn and grow. You enjoy getting to know your team members, and want to be a part of a work family.

You believe that as a psychotherapist, nothing provides you with as much of a learning experience as being a therapy client, yourself. You are quite proud about participating in your own mental wellness experiences, and you value the premium benefits of personal growth, recognizing that nothing else up-levels you as much in your professional life as a balanced and emotionally regulated nervous system. You know that therapy isn’t really a one-and-done endeavour, and that you may need to return to self-work as your life roles and seasons change. You do so with enthusiasm and a growth-mindset. You are motivated not to create drama in your workplace, and you take responsibility for executing your excellent self-care routines.

You are NOT a crispy-fried burnt out ex-public services or ex-non-for-profit therapist. While you may have worked at one of these types of agencies in the past, and you may have become crispy in the past before you knew better, ultimately you learned about how serving everyone but never-really-being-able-to-serve-anyone-enough-because-you-are-serving-EVERYONE leeches you, and leaves you feeling ineffective, long-term. You have taken leave of this indirect job requirement long enough to do your own burnout-recovery-journey, you recognize the fault in this mindset, and you are healthy, emotionally regulated, and ready for a new model for life as an employee in a new clinic, where success for your clients doesn’t come at a personal or moral cost to you. Success can be shared, growth can be ongoing and not a luxury, and therapists can be happy, financially secure, and do amazing work. You are ready to embrace the belief that psychotherapy is worth every penny of its fees, and you are keen to eliminate any old or limiting money mindset beliefs that result in you feeling bad about charging a fee for your services. You are ready to learn new skills for working in a client-pay job that you may not have needed previously, and you accept that there may be things about this job that you may need coaching and mentorship in. You’re keen to learn and 100% coachable.

You have a strong attention to detail and have excellent skills in organizational and interpersonal communication. You are very comfortable with using computers, and you are a quick online learner, able to teach yourself new tools without a lot of fuss or muss.

You want a certain amount of ease in your job. You don't want the hassle of marketing, deciphering Google Adwords, figuring out a Youtube channel, designing and maintaining websites, or any of that stuff that bogs therapists down when they open their own practices - nooooo thanks! You just want to be able to walk into your office, see your clients, complete your documentation on the same day, and follow instructions from the knowledgeable administration team about how to keep your job going right, then go home feeling satisfied with the help you have provided. The idea of having clients who come into their therapy reliably and ready for change feels like a mind-blowing awesomeness you can’t wait to experience. You really don't want to have to worry about how many clients are coming in the door, if you can make your office rent and furniture payment this month, or how many marketing events or pro-bono things you need to go to in order to get the number of clients you need.

THIS IS US:

Limestone Clinic is a growing team of mental health professionals who specialize in anxiety, depression, and trauma treatment, and who value a collaborative, patient-centered approach. We are currently working from home until the pandemic is sufficiently sorted that working in a place where clients routinely blow their noses won’t require us to wear sealed eye goggles and Hasmat suits. Our main office is located in scenic Kingston, where our staff enjoy the perks of a smaller city that is big enough to offer all the delicious restaurants and patios you could crave, many varied waterfront opportunities and experiences, a wealth of forests and waterways within and beyond the city, as well as large fixtures such as the military base, the Royal Military College, Queen’s University, St. Lawrence College, and even our local stadium, the K-ROCK Centre.

We provide:

• A very healthy referral network,
• Administrative staff who take care of your calendaring and new client booking needs,
• Paid weekly learning opportunities, including demos, skills practice, role-plays, mentoring, consultation, and instruction opportunities (valued at $36,000 yearly if you had to pay for this, yourself)
• A furnished and cheerily designed office space for you to work in (once COVID is over), with an inviting waiting room and staff lounge,
• A routinely augmented electronic educational library valued at tens of thousands of dollars in training opportunities
• A pay structure that is based on commission - your only limiting factor in how financially successful you can be is how many clients you see per week
• Health benefits that include vision and dental care opportunities

In exchange, you provide team camaraderie, responsible task completion, and psychotherapy services to our clients so they can achieve mental wellness.

If this sounds like you and your goal is to provide excellent mental health services, please make sure that you fit the requirements listed below, being sure to mention the words “pink baby elephant” in your cover letter in your resume/application.

Applicant Requirements and Qualifications:

• You genuinely like people
• You have at least a Master's degree in a mental health field
• You completed therapy practica in your graduate program
• You are registered with a professional college that permits you to autonomously perform the controlled act of psychotherapy
• You are a damn good therapist with proven results
• You have training and experience with treatment of depression and anxiety within a CBT framework but you are not dependent upon manuals to guide your sessions
• You have awesome attention to detail, observational, organizational, & interpersonal communication skills
• You like helping out (e.g., you will change the toilet paper roll if you notice it runs out)
• You are a whiz using computers and technology (i.e., you can scan, fax, and print stuff, you can use Excel, Word, Slack, Gmail, and are a competent web browser user who can add and use browser extension, edit .pdfs, and problem-solve independently if you get kerfuffled)
• Having to change the toner in the printer or the paper in the debit machine won't freak you out, and you won't break the printer or the debit machine out of frustration when doing so
• You are very strong in writing clinical reports and treatment updates, and you do these on time and efficiently
• You work well in a team and independently, and you generally enjoy opportunities to socialize with your work peers
• In your application you will provide us with letters of recommendation from former bosses, colleagues, clinical supervisors, or practicum supervisors

Work Remotely

• This is a possibility. Ideally we will have team members join us in the physical office. BUT if you are super-fab and we can't live without you on the team, we'll make it work if you are at the South Pole, even, and you have fast enough internet!
