Job description

Shift Collab, a leader in therapy and mental health education, and Maple, Canada’s premier virtual care platform, have partnered to provide on-demand video therapy. This is the first service of its kind in Canada. It innovates the traditional care model because it provides true on-demand service and scheduled sessions for clients from the comfort of their home. Clients have the ability to choose their therapist on a day and at a time that works for them. As a therapist, you will support clients with a range of presenting issues, including mood disorders, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, work or school stress, and life transitions.

The Role

We are seeking therapists who have MSW / RSW or RP credentials, have 2+ years of experience as a therapist and are regulated to practice psychotherapy in their province. In particular, we are looking for therapists who are comfortable using video therapy technology, skilled at using a variety of brief intervention modalities and feel confident that they can provide support for a wide range of individuals. Those who feel particularly comfortable with technology are encouraged to apply.

What to expect as a Maple Therapist

  • Being part of the most innovative virtual care platform in Canada
  • Allowing individuals to access therapy from the comfort of their own home
  • Allowing you to deliver therapy from the comfort of your own home
  • Working on your own schedule
  • Being supported by a great team at Shift

The Details

In this role, you will be contracted by Shift, and you will fulfill two kinds of sessions : on-demand sessions and scheduled sessions.

  • On-demand sessions : Whenever there is an incoming consultation, you will simply “pick-up” sessions when you wish between the hours of 8am to 8pm any day of the week, up to 6 hours per week as demand allows.
  • Scheduled sessions : You will be required to insert 6 hours per week in duration in the Maple calendar, so clients also have the option to schedule sessions with you directly on the app.

    • While this role is inherently flexible, we expect each therapist to be “live” on the platform on a regular basis, checking for available consultations during their scheduled hours. Therapists are free to take the sessions anywhere on their iPhone, laptop or desktop computer provided they are in a space appropriate to deliver a therapy session (ie : quiet, professional and private) with solid internet access that can accommodate video chat.

    For each 50-minute session that is completed, you will be compensated $60, paid on a monthly basis via direct deposit.

    Requirements

  • Have a Master's degree in Counseling or Social Work
  • Be a Registered Psychotherapist with your provincial regulatory body
  • Have 2+ years of experience providing individual therapy for those aged 14+
  • Up to 12 hours of availability, inclusive of 6 scheduled and 6 on-demand hours
  • Have up-to-date professional liability insurance or commit to having such insurance prior to your start date
  • Have a willingness to learn and be comfortable providing virtual therapy
  • You must have an iPhone, iPad and / or a laptop
  • Be comfortable with technology and delivering video / phone counseling
