About Ottawa EMDR

Ottawa EMDR is a specialized psychotherapy practice dedicated to helping clients process trauma, reduce distress, and move toward meaningful, measurable improvement. We provide EMDR therapy in person in Ottawa and virtually throughout Ontario. Our approach is compassionate, grounded, client-centred, and informed by evidence-based trauma treatment.ottawaemdr

We are seeking an EMDR-trained associate therapist who is thoughtful, clinically skilled, and committed to providing excellent trauma-informed care. This is an ideal opportunity for a clinician who enjoys focused trauma work and wants to grow within a supportive, specialized EMDR practice.

The opportunity

As an EMDR Associate Therapist, you will provide individual psychotherapy to adult clients presenting with trauma-related concerns, anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, and other concerns appropriate for EMDR and integrative trauma therapy.

Ottawa EMDR will provide a steady stream of appropriate client referrals, allowing you to focus your energy on excellent clinical care, therapeutic relationships, and professional growth.

What we offer

Compensation of $120 per completed session
Minimum caseload expectation of 8 sessions weekly across 2 days
Clients and referrals provided
Monthly EMDR case consultation with an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant
Opportunity to work in a specialized EMDR-focused practice
Brand new, professionally designed psychotherapeutic office space in a central Ottawa location near The Ottawa Hospital General Campus
Flexibility to provide in-person and, where appropriate, virtual care to clients
Collaborative, respectful, and low-stress practice culture
Opportunity to develop an integrative trauma-treatment caseload and professional niche

Key responsibilities

Conduct thorough intake, assessment, treatment planning, and ongoing risk assessment
Determine client readiness for trauma processing and provide stabilization, resourcing, and skills development as clinically indicated
Maintain timely, accurate, and clinically appropriate documentation
Manage a consistent caseload of at least 8 sessions per week over a minimum of 2 days
Participate in monthly EMDR consultation and engage thoughtfully with feedback and case discussion
Maintain professional registration, liability insurance, and ethical standards of practice
Collaborate respectfully with the Ottawa EMDR team and external providers when clinically appropriate, with client consent

Required qualifications

Current registration in good standing with an Ontario regulatory college permitting independent or appropriately supervised psychotherapy practice, such as:
College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO)
College of Psychologists and Behaviour Analysts of Ontario (CPBAO)
Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW), where scope and competence permit psychotherapy practice
Another relevant Ontario-regulated health profession
Formal EMDR training that meets or is consistent with EMDRIA-recognized foundational training standards
Demonstrated competence in trauma-informed assessment, stabilization, pacing, dissociation awareness, and clinical risk management
Experience providing individual psychotherapy to adults
Professional liability insurance
Excellent written documentation, communication, organizational, and time-management skills
Availability to provide a minimum of 8 sessions per week across 2 days

Strong assets

We welcome clinicians who can offer EMDR within a broader, integrative trauma-treatment framework. Additional training or experience in any of the following would be a strong asset:

Flash Technique
Brainspotting
Somatic Experiencing
Internal Family Systems (IFS) or parts-informed therapy
Attachment-focused therapy
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for individuals or couples
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
Trauma-focused CBT
Mindfulness-based interventions
Grief, loss, or complex trauma treatment
Experience working with healthcare professionals, first responders, military members, or clients with workplace trauma

Additional languages that can be offered for therapy also a strong asset.

Who will thrive in this role

The right candidate is not only trained in EMDR; they are also clinically mature, grounded, and attentive to the pace of the client’s nervous system. They understand that effective trauma therapy involves more than moving quickly into processing. They can establish safety, assess readiness, recognize when stabilization is needed, and adapt treatment thoughtfully.

A strong associate therapist will be:

Warm, empathic, and able to build trust with clients from diverse backgrounds
Confident but humble, with good clinical judgment and a commitment to consultation
Comfortable working with complex trauma, anxiety, grief, attachment injuries, and relational concerns
Skilled at explaining EMDR clearly and collaboratively to clients
Attuned to dissociation, overwhelm, window-of-tolerance concerns, and the need for pacing
Reliable, responsive, and consistent in attendance, scheduling, and documentation
Interested in ongoing learning and maintaining high standards of ethical, evidence-informed care
Able to work independently while valuing connection, consultation, and collegial support

Application instructions

Please submit your resume/CV and a brief cover letter describing:

Your professional designation and Ontario registration status
Your EMDR training, level of experience, and consultation history
Your experience with trauma and complex trauma presentations
Any additional somatic, parts-based, attachment-focused, or trauma-treatment modalities you offer
Your available days and preferred weekly session capacity
Whether you are available for in-person, virtual, or hybrid appointments

We thank all applicants for their interest. Only those selected for an interview will be contacted.

Pay: $120.00 per hour

Expected hours: No less than 8.0 per week

Benefits:
