About the Role

RISE Care is an innovative home care and clinical services company delivering personalized, restorative care that supports strength, independence, dignity, and quality of life.

We are seeking a Clinical Psychologist with a specialization or strong interest in geriatrics to provide home-based psychological assessment and intervention for older adults and their families. This role focuses on supporting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, adjustment concerns, cognitive changes, behavioural symptoms, and caregiver stress.

This is a unique opportunity to practice psychology outside of a clinic setting, working closely with clients in their home environment and collaborating with an interdisciplinary care team to support aging in place.

This position is ideal for a psychologist seeking flexible, supplemental work who values meaningful clinical relationships, autonomy, and innovative models of community-based care.

  • Support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, adjustment, and late-life transitions.
  • Assist clients and families in coping with cognitive decline, functional change, and loss of independence.
  • Adapt interventions to the home context and individual capacity.

3. Family & Caregiver Support

  • Provide psychoeducation and support to families and informal caregivers.
  • Assist caregivers in understanding behavioural symptoms, communication strategies, and stress management.
  • Support caregiver resilience, boundaries, and well-being.

4. Interdisciplinary Collaboration

  • Collaborate with nursing, psychiatric nursing, care assistants, primary care, and specialists.
  • Contribute psychological insight to care planning and risk management.
  • Support referrals and system navigation where appropriate.

5. Documentation & Professional Practice

  • Maintain timely, accurate, and professional documentation.
  • Practice in accordance with ethical standards, scope of practice, and professional guidelines.
  • Participate in quality improvement and service development initiatives as desired.

  • Professional liability insurance

Preferred
