Impact Therapy Group is seeking a passionate and skilled Registered Psychotherapist or Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) to join our practice as an independent contractor.

Impact Therapy Group is a private practice that provides evidence-based psychotherapy to adults, teens, and couples experiencing challenges related to trauma, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, anxiety, disordered eating, and relationship concerns. Our team currently includes five therapists, and we are excited to continue growing so we can serve more people in need.

Our approach is active, collaborative, and goal-oriented. We value compassion and validation, while also helping clients challenge unhelpful patterns, learn practical skills, and create meaningful change. While therapy often involves difficult work, we aim to keep the atmosphere warm, approachable, and genuine.

We are looking for a therapist who:

• Embraces an integrative approach to treatment
• Is committed to ongoing growth through supervision, peer consultation, and professional development
• Can create a warm, non-judgmental environment while actively helping clients work toward their goals

All sessions are conducted virtually through Jane App.

Our workplace culture is supportive, growth-oriented, and emotionally safe. We value collaboration, welcome vulnerability, and encourage therapists to seek guidance whenever needed to best support their clients.
