Sigma Therapies is a clinician-led practice in Bibra Lake looking for a psychologist (registered or provisional) to work across psychological therapy and Positive Behaviour Support with NDIS and private/self-funded clients across Perth.
This is not a PBS-only role, and it is not a therapy-only treadmill either. Your caseload can include therapy, behaviour assessment, behaviour support planning, consultation and reporting, shaped around your skills and interests.
You do not need to be a PBS practitioner yet. If you are already considered suitable as an NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner (Core or above), you can step straight into the full role. If you are a psychologist who wants to develop into PBS, we will support you with supervision and a clear development pathway, and your PBS responsibilities will build as your suitability does.
Provisional psychologists are welcome too. Supervision from a Board-approved supervisor is provided in-house, and your salary, caseload and PBS involvement will be set to your registration stage and experience.
What you will get
- $95,000 to $120,000 + super, where you land depends on experience and PBS suitability, plus bonus potential
- $2,500 annual professional development allowance
- WFH time for reports, planning and admin. This work needs formulation and thinking time, and we build it in rather than pretending it happens between sessions
- Regular supervision and case consultation, including support with clinical complexity and NDIS documentation
- An admin team that handles bookings, communication and practice systems
- Full-time or part-time, with flexibility around FTE
What you will do
Depending on your experience and PBS suitability status:
- psychological therapy with NDIS and private/self-funded clients
- functional behaviour assessments
- interim and comprehensive behaviour support plans, implementation and review
- restrictive practice reduction planning where relevant
- consultation with families, support workers, coordinators, schools and providers
- clinical formulation, risk assessment and NDIS reporting
- collaboration with our OTs and allied health team
What you will need
- general or provisional registration as a psychologist with AHPRA
- PBS experience, or a real interest in developing into PBS
- strong formulation and report-writing skills
- confidence working with families, support workers and multidisciplinary teams
- a WA driver's licence and reliable vehicle
- NDIS Worker Screening Check, or willingness to obtain one
Experience with disability, mental health, neurodevelopmental presentations, trauma, forensic or child and adolescent work is all relevant here.
