Current Opportunity
RP or RP (Qualifying) | Independent Contractor | Primarily In Person
Anticipated start date: Flexible, with a preference for someone available to begin as soon as possible.
We’re looking for a warm, skilled psychotherapist who enjoys working with children, teens, and parents and wants to develop a sustainable, longer-term role within an established group practice.
Referrals for adults are also available for clinicians who would like a mixed caseload. Experience providing couples or family therapy is an asset but is not required.
This opportunity may be a good fit if you:
- Are registered with CRPO as an RP or RP (Qualifying)
- Have at least one year of post-graduate experience providing psychotherapy
- Have experience working with children and teens, ideally beginning around age five or six
- Are comfortable supporting presentations such as ADHD, autism, OCD, anxiety, depression, and behavioural challenges
- Are warm, authentic, reliable, and communicative
- Are interested in building toward approximately 20 completed sessions per week
- Plan to offer approximately 23–25 weekly appointment times as your caseload develops
- Plan to provide most of your sessions in person, with the option to offer some additional virtual availability
- Are interested in becoming part of a collaborative professional community
SCHEDULING
This opportunity is best suited to a clinician who plans to make at least three consistent, in-person, high-demand blocks available each week.
A high-demand block may include:
An evening from approximately 3:00–8:00 p.m.; or
A Saturday block of at least four hours
For example, a clinician may choose to offer three evenings or two evenings and a Saturday block, along with some daytime availability. As an independent contractor, you determine how to structure your schedule and remaining availability.
COMPEnsation
Typical current rates within the practice are:
RP (Qualifying): $175 per session
Independent RP: $185 per session
Based on these typical fees and Sherwood’s current compensation structure:
Independent RPs: Approximately $111 per completed session, increasing to approximately $120 once the established caseload threshold is met
RP (Qualifying) clinicians: Approximately $90 per completed session, increasing to approximately $99 once the established caseload threshold is met
