We cover these practice costs even if you are away on sick or annual leave. Our support will save you many hours in admin, triaging clients, returning calls, booking clients in etc. It is all done for you, you can just focus on the clinical work.
*We ask for a commitment of a minimum of 10 clients a week. This can be provided evening, weekend or daytimes to suit you. Working hours and days are completely flexible, dependent on room availability. We require 5-6 clients a week to be face to face therapy clients.*
We are well established with local GPs sending us clients as well as self referrals. We average 15 new referrals per week and most of our Associates are presently full, so we have lots of ongoing stable work for you. The referrals come from the YouTube channel with Dr Abigail Pamich, local GP networks, established networks with local universities and colleges. On average we receive new 166 self referrals per quarter and presently have around 300 sessions per month provided to clients.
This is an ideal package if you want to focus on clinical work, without expending energy, time and money on the business setup and ongoing admin side of private practice.
Who we are:
Malvern Hills Private Practice offers rapid access to highly qualified Practitioners in Clinical Psychology, Counselling Psychology, EMDR, Psychotherapy and Couple Counselling. The practice has a strong internet presence, ranking number one in local Google searches. New referrals are frequent, with local GPs and Health Insurance agencies making private recommendations, as well as individuals self-referring.
We are also launching Midlands ADHD Clinic in Jan 2025 which you can be involved in should you wish to undertake ADHD assessments. We have a group of Psychologists who collaborate together offering peer support for assessments. We can direct you to the appropriate training.
The practice has a powerful IT base, offering clients the option to book new intake appointments or regular sessions through our online diary. There are also online videos advertising our services and providing information on therapy. See www.malvernhillsprivatepractice.co.uk for who we are. The Clinical Director also has a website www.doctorabigail.co.uk and a YouTube Channel.
Please note this is a contract position, on an hourly consultancy basis, with a 2 month notice period.
We welcome applicants from Psychologists with other part time positions. However, if you already have a thriving private practice in the Malvern area this may not be the right position for you, due to difficulties in cross-referenced referrals. This post is ideal for psychologists wanting to complement their NHS role, or leave the NHS and move into flexible, private practice work within an established, supportive team.
