Make a meaningful difference with Ruby’s

At Ruby’s, we support young people and families experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, helping to address family conflict, strengthen relationships and respond to the impacts of trauma, sexual violence and sexual abuse.

We are looking for an experienced Counsellor to join our team on a fixed-term parental leave contract. This is an opportunity to bring your therapeutic expertise to a well-established service and make a genuine difference in the lives of young people and families.

About the role

You will provide high-quality counselling and therapeutic support to young people and their families experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. Your work will focus on family conflict, relationships, trauma, sexual violence and sexual abuse.

This is an opportunity for an experienced Counsellor to bring strong therapeutic knowledge and professional experience to the Ruby’s team. You will work collaboratively with other practitioners and, where appropriate, be someone colleagues can turn to for a second perspective, therapeutic discussion or peer support.

The role will suit someone who is confident in their own practice, enjoys working collaboratively and is comfortable sharing their knowledge and experience with others when required.

You will also:

Complete holistic assessments and develop client-centred case plans.
Support young people experiencing trauma, family conflict and homelessness.
Provide counselling and case management to young people and families relating to sexual assault and sexual abuse.
Work collaboratively with internal and external services and referral pathways.

Maintain high standards of professional practice, ethics and documentation.

About you

We are particularly interested in people who can demonstrate experience with counselling theoretical approaches, such as:

Narrative therapy
Family and systems theory
Attachment theory

These approaches are identified in the position description as key knowledge for the role.

Experience or training in family therapy and/or sexual abuse counselling will be highly regarded. We also value practitioners who are comfortable sharing their knowledge and providing peer support to colleagues when required, contributing to a collaborative and reflective therapeutic environment.

You will ideally bring:

Professional experience delivering counselling services.
Experience working with young people and families.
Knowledge of adolescent development and the impacts of trauma.
Strong communication, relationship-building and advocacy skills.
The ability to manage competing priorities while maintaining quality practice.
A strong commitment to ethical, culturally respectful and client-focused practice.
A full, unrestricted Australian Driver's Licence.
National Police Check and Working with Children Check, or willingness to obtain these as required.

Why join us?

About Ruby’s?

This is an opportunity to step into an established therapeutic service where your counselling expertise can influence both individual outcomes and the broader team’s practice.

You will work alongside people who are committed to creating positive change for young people and families, while having the opportunity to contribute your own therapeutic perspective, knowledge and experience.
