Job Description

Intellect Care (Counselling/ Psychotherapy) is a collaborative process to guide, explore and/or resolve personal, social, or psychological problems and difficulties.

Counselling is most useful when clients seek tools or techniques to support their mental health.

Psychotherapy identifies unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviours which may limit the client's quality of life or daily activities and equip clients with more helpful and effective ways of thinking, behaving and relating to others. This addresses moderately severe mental health experiences.

Intellect Care normally spans up to 50 minutes.

What You'll Do

  • Provide 1-on-1 telehealth/or onsite mental health support for Intellect’s clients
  • Address a range of clinical cases, including depression, anxiety, trauma, schizophrenia, eating disorders, addiction, and more
  • Partner with our internal clinical team to improve the platform and client programs

Requirements

  • Qualifications: Masters degree in Clinical Psychology, Counselling Psychology, or an equivalent accredited programme
  • Experience: A minimum of 3 years of clinical experience and 500 supervised clinical hours (excluding internships and academic placements)
  • Expertise: Skilled in Trauma-Informed Therapeutic Approaches
    • Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT)
    • Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
    • Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) for trauma survivors
    • Somatic Experiencing (SE)
  • License: Must hold valid and active licenses applicable to the country of practice
  • Supervision Requirement: One supervision session every 2 months
  • Languages: Proficiency in English and your local language
  • Preferred Background: Prior experience with EAP and/or adult counseling
  • Flexibility: Openness to occasional onsite work, if necessary

If you’re ready to make a meaningful impact and be part of a mission-driven team, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and join us in transforming mental health care!
