  • Support students at risk, on and off campus, helping them identify and understand problem areas in their lives.
  • Connect students with internal and external resources to facilitate successful treatment planning.
  • Provide safe and affirming counselling for students identifying with minoritized and/or marginalized equity seeking groups.
  • Participate in case consultation activities and department meetings.
  • Conduct administrative activities related to the professional practice and contribute to the intellectual life of the University through public presentations and contributions to the community and society.
  • Develop and facilitate in-person or telehealth/virtual group therapy and psycho-educational workshops.
  • Occasionally, provide in-service, presentations, and training modules to the department and to the broader campus community.
  • Improve mental health literacy and lead program coordination, promotion, and student support of mental health and wellness initiatives.
  • Work closely with community partners to align our mental health and wellness efforts for students and develop health and wellness resources for students, faculty, and staff.
  • Create and deliver educational, collaborative, or consultative services related to student mental health or broad mental health initiatives to faculty and staff.
  • Contribute to Wellness and Psychological Services program evaluation, development, and improvement.
  • Remain familiar and in adherence with relevant laws, regulations, and professional standards.

Requirements

  • Master's degree in Counselling/Clinical Psychology or Clinical Social Work.
  • Professional registration with the College of Alberta Psychologists or the Alberta College of Social Workers.
  • Experience with professional general assessments, counselling, group facilitation, and workshop development.
  • Prior experience in the post-secondary education system is an asset.
  • Experience supporting and promoting wellness and equity for marginalized populations and individuals requesting help is desired.

Please include a cover letter and curriculum vitae with your application. The successful candidate may be requested to provide a current Police Record Check with a Vulnerable Sector Check. Three letters of reference should be sent directly from referees to the contact person.
