Psychologist

About Unbound Minds

Founded by Monica and Justin, Unbound Minds was created out of the desire to build a workplace that truly values work-life balance, unlike previous experiences in the industry. Their practice focuses on flexibility, transparency, and supportive work culture tailored for psychologists.

Work Environment and Schedule

• Flexible scheduling that suits your lifestyle: work between two to five days per week, with recruitment ongoing to find the right fit.
• Respect for your time: If a client cancels, you are free to leave rather than waiting around. Remote work is possible for part of your week when appropriate.
• Face-to-face therapy sessions are conducted in-clinic, but overall your time is your own.
• Pay structure ranges from $130,000 to $160,000 annually depending on registration level and experience, with transparent pay bands and annual guaranteed reviews.
• Additional billable activities such as reports, extended calls, and case conferences are compensated.

Daily Responsibilities

• Conduct 50-minute client sessions with note-taking integrated into the schedule.
• Daily allocation of 90 minutes of protected administrative time.
• Utilize AI-assisted note-taking (with client consent) to reduce after-hours work.
• Collaborate with a dedicated and experienced administrative team handling bookings, billing, and scheduling to minimize paperwork.
• Manage caseloads tailored to your clinical interests such as anxiety, school refusal, trauma, and parent work.
• Participate in meaningful supervision, including monthly group sessions and one-on-one meetings.

Professional Development and Benefits

• Clear career progression from Registered/Clinical Psychologist roles to senior positions.
• Receive a $1,000 professional development allowance and up to $1,000 wellness allowance annually.
• Early access to long-service leave after three years of service instead of the typical ten years.
• Salary packaging options available to optimize compensation.

Team Culture and Support

• Workload is carefully monitored and adjusted to prevent burnout; new hires are made if team capacity tightens.
• Caseloads come from established referral networks, eliminating the need to build a client base independently.
• Strong peer support culture with colleagues available to debrief and collaborate on challenging cases.
