Green Leaf Psychological Services is seeking a personable, skilled Registered Counsellor to join our established private practice clinic in Halifax, Nova Scotia with full-time and part-time opportunities.

This position offers flexible working hours, generous compensation, health benefits, and a full clinical caseload on day one, without the stress of running your own practice or being limited to a 9-5 traditional position.

Our newly renovated, fully furnished offices are bright, modern, and located in a professional building in the heart of Halifax, surrounded by physicians, dentists, pharmacies, yoga studios, and other complementary services. We receive a very high volume of referrals from Halifax, Bedford, and Dartmouth, and are currently unable to meet demand.

Successful candidates join with a full caseload ready immediately, or whenever you choose to take this on. We offer a warm, supportive environment, full administrative support, regular peer consultations, and a genuine emphasis on work-life balance.

Why Choose Green Leaf?

Full caseload provided - no marketing or networking required.
Flexible scheduling - choose weekdays, evenings, or a mix.
No minimum hours (set your own availability).
Fully furnished, modern office space in a central location.
Full-time in-office administrative support - intakes, scheduling, client screening, payments, etc.
Collaborative, friendly clinical team.
Regular peer consultations.
Work–life balance built into our practice model.
Health benefits.

Compensation:

Estimated annual earnings: $130,000 - $140,000.
Above-market compensation with most counsellors exceeding $130,000 in their very first year.

Qualifications:

Masters or Doctoral degree in Counselling or Psychology.
Registered with The Nova Scotia College of Counselling Therapists.
Experience providing treatment and intervention services for adults, and/or couples, and/or teens.
Interest in working in a supportive, private practice environment.

Who This Opportunity Is Perfect For:

Counsellors wanting the freedom of private practice without the administrative burden.
Counsellors transitioning from hospital, community mental health, other private practice clinics, or government settings.
Counsellors seeking higher income, more autonomy, and flexible hours.
Counsellors who currently find themselves in less than healthy or toxic workplaces (unfortunately they do exist). We are very focused on maintaining a healthy, friendly, and respectful clinic.
Counsellors in Nova Scotia who are currently operating independently but do not have a full caseload.

How to Apply:

Note: This position is open to residents of Canada only.
Please submit your resume and cover letter by email (info@GreenLeafPsychological.com), or visit our website for more details and to submit online: https://www.greenleafpsychological.com/counsellor-jobs-halifax-nova-scotia.html.
