We are a professional, newly built office in Aspen Landing that provides a boutique, fresh, and fun atmosphere for both clients and staff.

Westside Child Psychology is seeking to add a registered psychologist to the team (that currently consists of four psychologists and an office coordinator) who has the natural ability to connect with children and their families.

The ideal candidate will have: 1) a deep knowledge base of childhood disorders, 2) the ability to think critically and identify how these disorders present in practice, and 3) demonstrate a well-developed communication style, both verbally and written, that results in assessment reports that stand above the rest. Consultation with schools (e.g., observations, IPP meetings/planning), pediatricians, psychiatrists, and other professionals as part of, and following the assessment process is often implemented.

In addition to the above, the ideal candidate will also have training and experience in the treatment planning and counselling of:
