Join the Centred Self team

At Centred Self, the client – not some ‘step-by-step structure’ – comes first. We are committed to fostering the therapeutic relationship in order to delve into even the scariest depths with clients. Therefore, we seek therapists who are passionate about fostering their own radical self-awareness and recognize that no matter what discipline they work from, they are the technique. We seek psychotherapists who have a desire to hone their practice to better serve clients.

Learn from passionate psychodynamic practitioners through peer supervision, in-depth training and mentoring to therapists who want to learn to provide more than just a ‘band-aid’ approach to therapy. Grow in your self-awareness and hone your practice as a therapist. 

We have a unique contract structure where the practitioner's compensation grows with their practice - the more clients you see, the higher the compensation is. Structure starts at 60/40 and goes up to 80/20. This means that once you have grown in your practice, Centred Self can compensate the same way as if you were a solo private practitioner - but this way, you get a a team beside you! We have never seen a contract structure like this before, making Centred Self a pioneer in treating practitioners fairly and building retention instead of a glass ceiling. 

Become a part of a thriving practice that is changing what mental health looks like!
