Job Description

Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful impact on families during a pivotal time in their lives? At Renew, we offer an exciting opportunity for a clinician who thrives in challenging yet deeply rewarding work. Supporting families through separation and divorce is an opportunity to foster healing, strengthen relationships, and create positive change for children caught in the middle. If you are passionate about guiding families through difficult transitions and helping them find stability and resilience, we would love for you to join our team in Mississauga.

This is an independent contract position, offering the flexibility to set your schedule while benefiting from the support of a dedicated team. At Renew, we take care of the marketing and administrative tasks so you can focus on what truly matters, providing high-quality therapeutic support to families.

We recognize the importance of feeling supported in this work. That's why we offer complimentary clinical supervision, along with ongoing training and a collaborative team environment where therapists can connect for additional support.

About the Role

In this role, you will provide evidence-based therapy to parents and children experiencing separation and divorce.

This also aligns with the needs of our clients, many of whom work during the day or have children in school and prefer sessions outside of traditional business hours. As we establish our presence in Pickering, initial hours may be lighter while we build our client base.
