About Us

Hampstead Psychology is a trusted private practice offering evidence-based psychological therapy for adults, couples, children, and families in Hampstead and Central London. We're known for our compassionate approach, clinical excellence, and strong referral partnerships.

As demand grows, we're expanding our expert team. This is an ideal opportunity for experienced psychologists who want to focus on high-quality therapy — without the burden of marketing, admin, or billing.

We're particularly looking for adult and CAMHS psychologists who can offer evening or weekend clinics

.

What We Offer

  • £150–£180 per clinical hour for self-referrals, depending on expertise
  • 20% referral fee for Bupa and AXA clients
  • Steady stream of referrals – both insured and self-paying clients
  • Admin and billing fully handled – so you can focus on clinical work
  • Support with setup – ideal for psychologists new to private practice
  • Flexible working – either in your own high-quality Central/North London clinic, or at our rooms in Hampstead
  • Collaborative, professional team – you're not working in isolation

What We're Looking For

We welcome Clinical or Counselling Psychologists with NHS or private experience in either CAMHS or Adult services. You will ideally:

  • Be HCPC-registered
  • Have 10+ years of experience as a psychologist working with mental health
  • Be eligible for insurer recognition (e.g. Bupa, AXA)
  • Be available for evening or Saturday clinics
  • Offer 4–6+ client hours per week
  • Have further training in CBT, ACT, CFT, EMDR, Schema Therapy, Couples Therapy, or other therapeutic model
  • Be confident in working with a wide range of presentations including trauma, anxiety, OCD, burnout, relationship difficulties, and neurodiversity
  • Be warm, ethical, and clinically independent

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct assessment, formulation, and delivery of evidence-based interventions
  • Manage a clinical caseload effectively and ethically
  • Adhere to GDPR, HCPC, and professional conduct standards
  • Adapt flexibly to the needs of diverse clients and presentations

Eligibility for International Applicants

We welcome applications from psychologists trained outside the UK, where training is equivalent to the UK Doctorate in Clinical or Counselling Psychology (DClinPsy/PsychD, 3 years). Eligible qualifications include:

  • Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Hong Kong:
     Doctorate in Clinical or Counselling Psychology (3 years)
  • USA or Canada:
     PhD or PsyD in Clinical/Counselling Psychology (5–7 years)
  • Singapore:
     Doctor of Clinical Psychology

Please note: In most of mainland Europe and Scandinavia, psychology training is at the 
Master's level only

and not equivalent to the UK DClinPsy. Applicants from these regions would require additional training and HCPC recognition.

All applicants must hold (or be eligible for) 
HCPC registration as a Practitioner Psychologist

in the UK. However, we are looking for clinical/counselling psychologists underneath this umbrella term.

Location

Work from your own high end clinic space in North or Central London, or from consulting rooms in Hampstead, London.
