Therapist – Multi-Systemic Therapy for Child Abuse and Neglect (MST-CAN)

 

The Role on Offer

 We’re offering a unique and deeply rewarding opportunity for a passionate Therapist to join our Multisystemic Therapy for Child Abuse and Neglect (MST-CAN) program in Dubbo, NSW (Wiradjuri Country). This isn’t your typical therapy role — it’s an intensive, home-based family preservation program designed to support vulnerable families and keep children aged 0–17 safely at home.

You’ll be part of a dynamic team delivering evidence-based clinical and practical strategies that make a real difference. Every day brings new challenges, meaningful connections, and the chance to change lives.

 Why This Role is for You:

  • You’ll gain rare, hands-on experience that will elevate your career
  • You’ll be trained in cutting-edge therapeutic models
  • You’ll work in a supportive, multidisciplinary team
  • And most importantly — you’ll help families heal and grow

 If you’ve got the attitude, passion, and talent to thrive in this space, we’d love to hear from you!

 What We’re Looking For

We’re searching for someone who brings both clinical expertise and human connection to the table. The ideal candidate will have:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Psychology, Social Work, or a related discipline (we’re open to discussion if you bring equivalent experience and passion)
  • Strong experience in risk assessment, with a clear understanding of how to manage safety for clients, colleagues, and yourself
  • The ability to communicate and engage effectively with individuals and families from diverse cultural and social backgrounds
  • Confidence using clinical software systems and the ability to maintain detailed, accurate case records
  • flexible approach to working hours, including participation in a rotating after-hours and weekend on-call roster, to meet the needs of families and the MST-CAN model
  •  A current Australian Driver Licence and the ability to travel for work purposes (car allowance options available)

 

In return for your expertise, we offer these amazing employee perks:

  • Boost Your Pay: Supercharge your take-home pay with our Salary Packaging—more cash in your pocket for the things that matter most!
  • Vacation Vibes: Treat yourself to 5 weeks of annual leave—whether you’re exploring the world, unwinding, or binge-watching your favourite shows, it’s all about you!
  • Career Kickstart: Unlock your potential with an annual Professional Development allowance to help you crush your career goals!
  • Shop & Save: Groceries? Fuel? Score major discounts and cashback through our employee rewards program, so your wallet can breathe easy!
  • Treat Yourself: You’ve earned it! Our Wellbeing allowance lets you book that massage or spa day—self-care is a priority!
  • Money Smarts: Level up your financial game with financial literacy sessions and personalised banking options through our partners at Westpac and St George!
  • Clinical Supervision: Enjoy individual and group clinical supervision with experienced clinicians, ensuring you’re always supported and growing in your role
  • Location, Location, Location: Work from our brand-new premises, located in the main street – close to shops, riverside walks and lots of parking!
  • Commitment to Cultural Safety: you can access our Innovate RAP through this link: https://www.marathonhealth.com.au/news/launching-our-innovate-rap/

 

 MST-CAN isn’t therapy as usual.

It’s boots-on-the-ground, evidence-based, trauma-informed, and deeply human. You’ll be part of a tight-knit team with 24/7 backup, cutting-edge training, and the kind of impact that sticks.

  If you’re ready to be the change — not just talk about it — we’re ready for you.
