Independent Contractor Opportunities


Healing Connections Psychotherapy Inc. is growing, and we are currently seeking two independent practitioners to provide services within our welcoming North Bay clinic:

  • Child Therapist — RP or RP (Qualifying)

  • Couples Therapist — RP or RP (Qualifying)

These are independent contractor opportunities for clinicians who want to work within a warm, creative and collaborative clinical environment.

We’re looking for more than the right credentials. We hope to connect with therapists whose personalities, clinical values and approaches complement the atmosphere at Healing Connections: genuine, welcoming, inclusive, trauma-informed and deeply human.

Independent contractors manage their own caseload and professional responsibilities while benefiting from opportunities for referrals, administration support, connection and collaboration within an established practice setting.

Child Therapist

We are looking for a therapist who genuinely enjoys working with children and understands that children often communicate through play, creativity, movement and connection, not only through words.

The ideal practitioner:

  • Is registered as an RP or RP (Qualifying) in good standing with the CRPO

  • Has experience or a strong interest in working with children and families

  • Is playful, patient, creative and able to connect with children at their level

  • Has training in sand tray therapy or a genuine desire to learn

  • Is interested in play-based, attachment-focused and trauma-informed approaches

  • Understands the value of caregiver involvement and family systems

  • Is interested in developing and maintaining a child and adolescent caseload

  • Is comfortable supporting concerns such as anxiety, emotional regulation, trauma, school difficulties, neurodivergence and family transitions

  • Brings initiative, creativity and enthusiasm to their clinical work

Our child therapy spaces are intentionally designed to help children feel safe, comfortable and engaged. We would love to welcome someone who is excited to use the environment creatively and bring their own clinical style to the space.

Couples Therapist

We are also seeking an RP or RP (Qualifying) who is passionate about helping couples move beyond recurring conflict, disconnection and painful relationship patterns.

The ideal practitioner:

  • Is registered and in good standing with the CRPO

  • Has experience or a strong interest in couples therapy

  • Is comfortable holding space for conflict, emotional intensity and complex relationship dynamics

  • Practices from a relational, attachment-based and trauma-informed perspective

  • Has training in the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy or another couples-focused approach—or is interested in pursuing additional training

  • Is comfortable supporting communication difficulties, trust injuries, intimacy concerns, infidelity, parenting stress and relationship transitions

  • Is interested in developing and maintaining a couples caseload

  • Is compassionate, grounded and able to balance the experiences of both partners

Who Might Fit Well in Our Space?

You may be a great fit if you:

  • Care deeply about providing a safe and affirming client experience

  • Are warm, genuine and comfortable bringing your personality into the therapy room

  • Practice in a trauma-informed, inclusive and culturally responsive way

  • Value clinical connection, consultation and continued learning

  • Communicate clearly and follow through on professional responsibilities

  • Maintain timely documentation and strong ethical standards

  • Are open to feedback and invested in professional growth

  • Enjoy being connected to other clinicians while maintaining the autonomy of independent practice

  • Are motivated to develop meaningful and sustainable clinical work

Healing Connections is not a cold or overly clinical-feeling environment. Our space is colourful

, comfortable and intentionally designed to feel human. Independent practitioners maintain their own approaches and professional autonomy while contributing to a respectful and welcoming shared environment.

What the Space Offers

Independent practitioners at Healing Connections may benefit from:

  • A welcoming and thoughtfully designed clinical setting

  • Furnished therapy rooms and access to child-friendly therapeutic resources

  • Opportunities to receive referrals suited to their areas of practice

  • Connection with other independent mental health practitioners 

  • Optional opportunities for consultation and professional learning

  • Opportunities to become involved in groups, workshops or community initiatives where mutually agreed upon

  • The freedom to bring creativity, personality and individual clinical interests into their work

Interested?

If you are an independent practitioner who feels aligned with the Healing Connections atmosphere and approach, we would love to hear from you.

Please send your resume and a brief introduction sharing:

  • Which opportunity interests you

  • Your clinical experience and areas of interest

  • Your current registration status

  • Your preferred availability

  • What you are hoping to develop in your practice

  • Why you feel Healing Connections may be a good fit for you

We care about qualifications, but we also care about who you are, how you connect with clients and what you hope to bring to the space.

Come build something meaningful alongside us.
