Job Description:
Our mission at the ADD Centre and Biofeedback Institute is to help clients improve their focus, concentration, attention span, self-awareness, and organization. We help them feel and understand what it is like to be in that focused and relaxed zone while in school, at work, or during an athletic event. Clients learn to use tools like breathing and heart rate variability to be more calm, relaxed, and aware.
Successful applicants will learn to utilize EEG neurofeedback (EEG operant conditioning) and Biofeedback in a clinical setting.
You will gain clinical experience working with clients in a supervised practice under a Register Clinical Psychologist who has experience in teaching, clinical psychology, school psychology and ownership of learning centers; written and published several books; presented papers and lectures at conferences worldwide. You will be working with clinical populations such as ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Anxiety, Depression, Post-Concussion Syndrome, and more.

We have a Toronto office (close to Lawrence subway station) and a Mississauga office (close to Square One). We prefer someone who can work at both offices if possible.
Compensation:
$17.5 per hour, paid with cheques (***There is a short unpaid orientation period initially). This may be adjusted based on experience and would be higher if you have previously attained BCIA certification.
