    • Able to work with adult individuals, couples, families and children
    • Adhere to professional standards and best practices
    • Engage in clinical consultation with the clinical management team as required

    What we're looking for
    • A Master’s degree in Social Work, Counselling or related field, supplemented by specific training in culturally competent care, Bachelor of Social Work with significant counselling experience will be considered
  • 3 or more years’ of generalist counselling experience, 1 year experience working with indigenous persons in a counselling setting is preferred
    • Lived experience as a member of an Indigenous community is a strong asset

    • Professional liability insurance coverage of $2,000,000 or as otherwise determined by Homewood Health
    • Ability to communicate in English, verbal and written, other Indigenous languages written and spoken are an asset
    • Ability to use Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook)

    Why work with us
    We are driven by our values and are passionate about improving lives. We offer competitive wages and professional development opportunities, along with opportunities to engage with a community of clinicians from a variety of professional backgrounds across Canada who are part of our community of practice. Join us and work along-side highly motivated people who are collaborative and focused on delivering seamless services and programs to our clients and customers.
