Current Opportunity for Clinical Neuropsychology Registrar
We are currently seeking a clinical neuropsychology registrar to join our team as a permanent employee on a part time basis (minimum 2 days per week). This position is designed to support a psychology graduate with neuropsychology specialisation towards developing competencies required for endorsement upon completion of the registrar program.
Although Elucidate Psychology specialises in neurodevelopmental conditions, such as Autism and ADHD, there is opportunity to develop clinical skills in working with a broad range of presentations across the lifespan. The role involves providing a range of neuropsychological services, including assessments, intervention and ongoing support, and group facilitation. There is also the potential to work within a multi-disciplinary team as part of our therapy assistance program.

We offer employee positions with excellent remuneration, entitlements, and benefits (including weekly individual and group supervision, extensive ongoing training, and annual professional development budget). Employees who meet our high standards of care receive quarterly bonuses.
- Beautiful Space: Our newly renovated heritage-listed building boasts state-of-the-art clinic facilities, creating a tranquil and welcoming atmosphere for both clients and clinicians. Our consulting rooms are set up for both testing and therapy and include plug-and-play workstations (with monitors, webcams, and other peripherals).
- Flexible Work Arrangements: Clinicians can tailor their schedules to suit their needs, making it suitable for parents and people with other caring responsibilities. We ensure employees have dedicated time in their schedules for administration and documentation, dedicated time for independent learning and personal PD, as well as supervision and ongoing training.
- Full Administrative Support Onsite: Our wonderful support team has extensive experience supporting busy clinicians and tailor their assistance to meet each clinician’s unique needs. This comprehensive support allows clinicians to concentrate on their clinical work with complete peace of mind.
- Align with Ethical Values: Work in an environment that prioritises ethical principles with a team of like-minded individuals committed to dismantling oppressive structures within the field. We believe in providing inclusive and accessible care that values the dignity, autonomy, and rights of all individuals.
- Collective Decision-Making: Our clinicians participate in collective decision-making processes and industrial democracy practices.
- Career Progression: Our non-hierarchical structure provides opportunities for career progression and there is potential to take on higher duties.
- Ongoing Professional Development: Our employees receive weekly individual supervision with our clinic director as well as weekly group supervision. They also engage in monthly professional development sessions featuring both internal and external presenters.
