Love Working with Couples?

So Do We.

Join our Canberra-based team and help create meaningful change for relationships.

We’re looking for an experienced Couples Therapist, based in Australia, to join us at In Positive Health in our welcoming Canberra practice rooms.

About our Canberra practice...

Our clinic is co-owned by a psychologist and a speech pathologist and is located in a new boutique office space in Braddon—just behind the Canberra Centre. Clients have access to plenty of parking nearby, and some of Canberra’s best cafés are just around the corner.

At In Positive Health, we currently offer both Psychology and Speech Pathology services. We’re now looking for an Australia-based Couples Therapist—whether a psychologist, social worker, or counsellor—to join us. This role is ideal for someone who values the independence of private practice alongside the connection and support of a collaborative team.

Gottman Training

If you haven’t yet completed Gottman Method Level 2 training, you’ll need to be open to undertaking it in the near future, with a view to progressing to Level 3 and eventually Certification. Along the way, you’ll be supported through regular supervision and clinical guidance within our practice.

To be eligible for Gottman Certification, you must hold a graduate-level qualification in your discipline, be registered or licensed for independent practice, and maintain current registration or membership with your relevant professional body.

While we’re here to support your clinical development and offer guidance throughout the certification process, the cost of formal Gottman training will be the responsibility of the Associate.
