At Ignite Psychology, we believe psychologists do their best work from a full cup. So we’ve built a role where documentation, planning and professional development happen in paid hours, not on unpaid evenings.
Ignite is growing, and in January 2027 we’re welcoming a new psychologist to our Summer Hill clinic.
Why Ignite
We’re an attachment-based child and family practice, built on three ideas:
- Depth over breadth. We specialise in child, adolescent and family mental health, and we go deep rather than wide.
- Clinicians who thrive. Your wellbeing matters as much as your clients’. We’d rather you flourish here for years than burn out in one.
- A team built on trust and character. We hire for who you are and shared values, then help you build deep expertise from there.
We see behaviour as communication: it’s not defiance, it’s distress. We work alongside parents, not around them.
The work
You’ll work with children, adolescents and families navigating anxiety, big feelings and emotional regulation, behaviour, social development, confidence and parent–child relationships. There’s also scope to contribute to our early-intervention work with educators, schools and allied health professionals.
Your day
Thursday and Friday, 10:00am–6:30pm:
- 10:00am–1:00pm: Paid non- clinical time. Notes, session planning, parent, school and referrer communication, training, professional development and case reflection. Where it suits, you can do this from home.

Clinical work happens in clinical hours. Everything that supports it, is paid and scheduled into your day.
