Psychotherapy Clinical Training Coordinator
Psychosynthesis South Pacific Trust is looking for a Clinical Training Coordinator to lead the coordination of years 2-5 of our Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy Clinical Training Programme (CTP).
This is a relational, high-trust role at the heart of our organisation. You’ll coordinate a team of experienced facilitators, support students through a multi-year clinical training, and help hold the container for a programme grounded in right relationship and ethical practice.
What you’ll do:
- Coordinate delivery of the CTP across each of its 24 training weekends (you won’t need to attend every one)
- Appoint and work alongside teaching faculty, in liaison with the PSP Trustees
- Hold faculty as a group: fostering open communication, safety, and constructive conflict resolution
- Track student progress, assignments, and six-monthly assessments
- Liaise with students’ guides, supervisors, and the faculty supervisor
- Manage apprentices within the programme
- Sign off completion diplomas
- Keep communication flowing between students, faculty, trustees, administrators, and contractors
What we’re looking for:
- Strong organisational, management, and communication skills
- Right-relating skills and experience (e.g. NVC, mediation, conflict management)
- Your own ongoing practice of personal development, through counselling, psychotherapy, or another modality
- Experience running long-term trainings or managing a faculty/team
- Familiarity with psychosynthesis maps, models, and theory in the Aotearoa/New Zealand context (e.g. completion of PSP Essentials)
- Experience and knowledge of working with Te Tiriti o Waitangi, te ao Māori, and the cultures of Aotearoa, or other indigenous culture
- A genuine interest in ethics, decolonisation, anti-racism, and ecology
- Bonus: a qualification in psychosynthesis counselling or psychotherapy, or practice in another therapeutic modality
The details:
Fee-for-service contract. Starts late 2026/early 2027.
Hours to be negotiated.
Reports to the PSP Trustees.
