Positive Wellbeing Psychology, is a Melbourne boutique, thriving and progressive psychology practice nestled in the inner-easter suburb of Malvern. We strive to continually improve our practice, to provide an exceptional working environment, where our psychologists feel valued, part of a community and truly supported.
We’re looking for early, mid, or late career psychologists (clinical or general registered), accredited mental health social workers, couples therapists, mental health occupational therapists, psychiatrists, and GP mental health specialists to join our growing team on a generous and highly competitive service agreement.
We take care of our practitioners, so that they can take care of their clients.
The Clinic Director and Principal Psychologist, Emily Burton, established Positive Wellbeing Psychology on a foundation of values that hold deep meaning to her, including:
• Warmth
• Genuine care
• Integrity
Our team of psychologists offer psychological support to adolescents, adults, children and their families who are facing diverse mental health challenges, spanning from depression, anxiety, stress, and burnout to relationship issues, eating disorders, body image concerns, adult ADHD, low self-esteem, and sleep problems.
Our services available at our Melbourne psychology practice extend beyond clinical concerns, encompassing personal growth, decision-making, and problem-solving support. Our practice directs client referrals based on your expertise and interests, ensuring that individuals seeking assistance aligned with your specific niche are directed to you.
Referral Sources:
Our referrals come from word of mouth, local and distant GPs, and AFL-PA (including current and former professional Australian Football League and AFL Women’s players). Funding options also include self-managed NDIS participants, Medicare-funded, and private fee-paying clients. Our reputable practice empowers psychologists to establish themselves within a rapidly growing referral network.
Collaborative Approach:
At Positive Wellbeing Psychology, we are known for our collaborative approach. Our Melbourne psychology practice has a unique reputation for establishing a holistic approach, which in turn seems to have supported our referral flow from like-minded professionals. We actively encourage psychologists joining our team to collaborate with connected dietitians, GPs, and psychiatrists, aiming to ensure the most comprehensive clinical care for our clients.
You’ll have plenty of opportunities to share a laugh and connect with other professionals on our team at breakfasts, paint-and-sip’s, local wine bars catch-up’s and fortnightly peer consultations. These opportunities aim to nurture a supportive and inclusive environment for our team to connect and interact with like-minded people.
Positive Wellbeing Psychology is a Melbourne Psychology practice nestled in the charming Inner-Eastern suburb of Malvern. Our inviting room boasts north-facing floor-to-ceiling windows, filling the space with warm sunlight. Enjoy the convenience of excellent coffee shops just steps away, perfect for a refreshing break between client sessions.
Our space is light, minimal, and just a stone throw away from amazing coffee shops! A big passion of mine (Emily here), is to create beautiful spaces that allow the mind to feel calm and motivated to get about the day. I enjoy nothing more than sharing this space with our psychologists and clients. Our rooms are bright and super cosy, welcoming and always busy with someone around for a chat at reception.
