A Career in private practice
Private practice for psychologists in Australia has undergone a significant transformation in the last decade. The contracting model was once favoured for its apparent autonomy and high hourly rates, but it proved to result in professional isolation, high burnout rates, zero investment in Superannuation, zero Paid Annual Leave or Personal Leave, Self-Funded training costs, and hefty supervision bills.
Sprout Psychology Melbourne actively fosters mentorship, provides funding for crucial ongoing training, and offers clear guidance across all essential aspects of a psychologist’s role. This includes support with assessment report writing, navigating broad paradigm shifts, full administrative support, and financial security, to ensure a growth-oriented, rewarding career.
