Working with Circle Psychology Partners

We are building a carefully selected network of highly skilled clinicians who share a commitment to thoughtful, ethical and effective psychological care.

Our practice places strong emphasis on:

Clinical excellence
We value therapists who are committed to evidence-based practice, reflective work and ongoing professional development.

Community-based care
Our clinics are designed to provide local, neighbourhood-based access to psychological therapy, allowing clients and families to access support close to where they live.

Accessible and responsive services
We aim to ensure that individuals and families can access appropriate support without unnecessary barriers, with a responsive referral and intake process.

Being a trusted first point of contact
Many clients contact us during difficult periods in their lives. Our role is to either provide high-quality therapy directly or help guide people towards the most appropriate services for their needs.

Supporting exceptional clinicians
Associates working with Circle Psychology Partners benefit from strong referral pathways, professional infrastructure and a collaborative clinical environment, allowing them to focus on delivering excellent care.

Associate Structure

Associates are independent practitioners, not employees of the practice. Clinicians work autonomously while benefiting from:

• Regular client referrals

• Access to established clinic rooms in East Dulwich (2A Zenoria Street) or in Peckham Rye (Peckham Levels)

• Flexible working arrangements

• Professional support and consultation where needed

• Guidance in establishing or developing independent practice

We aim to create an environment where clinicians can build sustainable and fulfilling independent practices while delivering high-quality care to clients.

Who This Role Is Best Suited To

Working as an associate at Circle Psychology Partners tends to suit clinicians who are comfortable practising independently within a collaborative professional network.

Our associates are typically therapists who:

• Have strong core clinical training and several years of post-qualification experience

• Are committed to evidence-based, reflective clinical practice

• Value working within a community-based service supporting local families and adults

• Are looking to build or develop a sustainable independent practice

• Appreciate being part of a trusted and carefully curated professional network

Because our clinicians work as independent practitioners, this role is generally best suited to therapists who already have experience managing their own clinical caseload and professional responsibilities.

Therapists with Their Own Rooms

If you have your own consulting room in South East London and are interested in receiving referrals through Circle Psychology Partners, we would also be pleased to hear from you.

We collaborate with clinicians across multiple neighbourhood locations as part of our growing network of community-based therapy services.
