Toronto, Canada Child Development Institute Full time

**Who we are**

Children are at the front and centre of what we do; they are the foundation of our purpose and the basis for our evidence-driven strategy. Our mission is to transform the lives of children, youth and their families by developing and delivering innovative, research-based mental health and early learning programs. At the Child Development Institute (CDI), we are passionate about helping our communities’ most vulnerable members and their caregivers. It motivates each of us to face what can be difficult situations while continuously finding the purest joy in play, in silence, in advice, and in the unbelievable strength and resilience of our young clients. Joining us now is a rewarding opportunity to be part of an organization that is built on a legacy of more than 100 years of helping children and families.

Recognized as a leader and model for measurement-based impact, we are client-centred, family-centred, and data-informed. We are a place where professionals grounded in mental health, care, and well-being of infants, children and youth, come together in collaboration, learning and inclusion. As a multiservice organization delivering social, emotional, and behavioural counselling services, early childhood education, learning disabilities and mental health services, and family violence services, we address the whole person from when they begin their life. Every child and family that reaches out to us is unique, and we value and embrace their individuality. We deliver the tailored support and tools they need to build life-long skills, positive mental health, and resilience. With their trust in us, we guide children and families along a supportive journey. It is an often difficult path and simultaneously the most rewarding experience for providers, children and families.

**Who we need**

Our Learning Disabilities and Mental Health (LDMH) program welcomes youth up to 18 years old. We provide specialized child & youth mental health counselling services delivered by a multidisciplinary team with knowledge in the field of mental health and learning disabilities. Therapeutic approaches are curated to each child’s learning style and help them understand their learning disabilities, develop coping mechanisms and improve their self-esteem and confidence. We follow our evidence-based programming and the Unified Protocol Program approach, including Feelings First. Our Clinical programming is supported by Therapeutic Recreational programming as well.

Reporting to the Clinical Manager, we are looking for a **Child and Family Clinician** to provide in-person, on-site therapeutic support to children and youth ages 8-18 and their families. You may be present one-on-one at school, in the community, and at the family home, as well as at CDI locations for group sessions. As part of our clinical leadership and children’s mental health treatment team, you will collaborate to develop treatment plans in a multidisciplinary context.

Therapeutic interventions may be delivered to individuals, groups and families. You are willing and able to occasionally travel to other CDI sites, community locations and family homes. You can work flexible hours to meet client needs, whether that’s before, during, or after school.

**What's in it for you**

**_ Profound purpose._** You want to play a critical role in developing a treatment plan as part of our Learning Disabilities and Mental Health program. You want to be the steady hand and the calming presence, someone who is a champion for the well-being of clients and can bring forward their perspectives, introduce clarity, observe behaviour and identify interventions.

**_ Growth as a Child and Family Clinician and as a compassionate human._** You want to expand your knowledge, skills, and impact following our evidence-based practices and proven processes in CBT and other methodologies. In addition, you will be part of in-house professional development opportunities, guided coaching and mentoring. Through cross-functional collaboration and as a result of our broad scope of services, you will gain insights through interactions with Social Workers, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, and more. You will have supervision for escalations or complex cases and be part of a team environment for overall practice support.

**_ The work-life balance and benefits. _**You will be a unionized, full-time staff member with flexible hours and full benefits. You will receive four weeks of paid vacation, including time off, at the end of the calendar year. You will have the advantage of delivering research-based, proven programming to a steady stream of 20-25 clients with the operational and administrative structure and support that are often missing in private practice.
