Working at Therapia

Working at Therapia means being part of a clinical team that takes its work seriously without losing sight of the people behind it. We’re an NDIS registered allied health provider in Melbourne, and our practitioners work across positive behaviour support, early intervention, clinical assessments, and complex needs. You’ll work alongside people who measure success by participant outcomes, not just hours billed. Our practice is growing across Melbourne and Victoria, and we’re looking for practitioners who want to grow alongside it. Whether you’re an experienced clinician or building your career in the NDIS sector, there’s a place here for people who do good work and want to keep getting better. We’re based in Melbourne’s west and deliver services across the broader metropolitan and regional areas of Victoria. If you’re ready to work somewhere your skills are genuinely put to use, we’d like to hear from you.

Opportunities to contribute & Innovate

A culture built on respect & growth

We've built a workplace where people are treated well, held to high standards, and supported to reach their potential.

A Supportive and Collaborative Culture

Culture at Therapia isn’t something we describe in job ads and then forget once you’re in the role. It shows up in how we actually work: regular team check-ins, honest clinical conversations, and a genuine commitment to looking out for each other. We’re a growing practice, which means your experience and perspective carry real weight in how things are done. Practitioners are encouraged to contribute ideas, raise concerns, and shape how Therapia develops as a service. You won’t find the kind of siloed working arrangements common in larger organisations here. We collaborate across roles and disciplines because the best outcomes for NDIS participants come from teams that communicate well and trust each other’s clinical judgement. For practitioners who’ve worked in disconnected or under-supported environments before, the difference is clear from day one. We’ve built the kind of workplace we’d want to work in ourselves, and we’re committed to protecting that as we scale.

Professional Development and Supervision

Professional development at Therapia is built into how we operate, not offered as a perk and left unused. All practitioners have access to regular clinical supervision, reflective practice sessions, and continuing professional development relevant to their discipline and caseload. We actively support practitioners working towards registration, endorsement, or specialist credentials in their professional field. External training, conference attendance, and engagement with bodies such as AHPRA and the Behaviour Analysis Association of Australia are genuinely encouraged and supported. Therapia also delivers clinical supervision services to allied health practitioners across Melbourne, which gives our team exposure to a wide range of clinical presentations and contexts. We believe that practitioners who keep developing deliver better outcomes for the NDIS participants they support. If you want a role that invests in your clinical growth, this is where that happens

Meaningful and Purpose Driven Work

The work Therapia practitioners do is visible in the lives of the people they support. When a child begins communicating in ways they couldn’t before, when a family finally feels equipped to manage a difficult day, when a young adult builds the independence they’ve been working towards: these are the outcomes that define what we do. We deliver positive behaviour support, early intervention, and allied health services to NDIS participants across Melbourne and Victoria, many of whom have complex needs and limited options. Our practitioners chose this field because they wanted to contribute to something that matters, and Therapia is set up to make that possible. We assess whether we’re doing our job by the progress our participants make, not the volume of referrals we process. The caseloads here are designed to give practitioners the time and space to do their work properly. Supporting people with disability in Victoria is not a simple job, and we don’t treat it as one. At Therapia, purposeful work isn’t a tagline. It’s the daily standard

Flexible and Balanced Work Environment

Therapia offers genuine flexibility because practitioners who are burnt out cannot deliver good clinical care. We’ve structured our working arrangements to support sustainable practice, with options for varied scheduling, community-based work, and a considered balance between direct clinical hours and administrative time. Our team delivers services across Melbourne and Victoria, with meaningful time spent in homes, schools, and community settings as part of the role. We don’t expect practitioners to be available at all hours or to sacrifice their own wellbeing for the demands of the job. Manageable caseloads, realistic expectations, and a team that notices when someone is carrying too much are part of how we operate day to day. We’re open to part-time arrangements for the right candidate and to conversations about what balance looks like for you before you start. Retaining good clinicians matters to us, and flexible arrangements are one of the ways we make that happen. If work-life balance is a priority for you, raise it early. 

Innovation and Service Development

Therapia is committed to staying current with evidence-based practice in allied health and NDIS service delivery. We actively engage with emerging research in positive behaviour support, early intervention, and developmental therapy to make sure our clinical practice reflects what the evidence actually supports. Our leadership team stays connected to the academic and professional communities shaping the field in Australia and internationally. As a growing provider, we’re also developing new services and refining existing ones, which means our practitioners have a real opportunity to contribute to how the organisation evolves. We want people on the team who have ideas about how things could be done better and aren’t afraid to raise them. Practice standards from the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission and peer-reviewed clinical guidelines inform how we design and review our services on an ongoing basis. This is a practice that looks forward, and we want practitioners on the team who do the same.

Commitment to Quality and Ethical Practice

Quality and ethical practice are not aspirational statements at Therapia. They are operational standards that apply to every service we deliver. All clinical work is governed by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission’s practice standards, and every practitioner on the team is expected to meet the professional and ethical requirements of their registration body. We maintain rigorous documentation, conduct regular clinical reviews, and take feedback from participants and families seriously as a tool for improving practice. Our clinical governance is led by practitioners with formal qualifications in behaviour analysis, so the standards we hold ourselves to are grounded in real clinical expertise, not just policy language. We support our team to raise concerns, question decisions, and advocate for participants without hesitation. Ethical practice in the NDIS sector requires more than good intentions. It requires clear systems, accountable leadership, and a culture where doing the right thing is the default position.

If you work in the NDIS sector in Melbourne or Victoria and your discipline aligns with the services we deliver, we encourage you to reach out even if there isn't a current vacancy listed.

NDIS experience is valued but not always essential, depending on the role. What matters most is your clinical foundation, your commitment to evidence-based practice, and your genuine interest in working with people with disability. Therapia provides structured onboarding, clinical supervision, and support for practitioners who are building their NDIS experience. We'd rather invest in the right person than hold out for a checklist of prior roles.

All practitioners at Therapia have access to regular individual and group clinical supervision delivered by our leadership team.

Whether you're working towards registration, building specialist skills, or maintaining your existing practice, supervision here is designed to be useful.

Yes. Therapia is open to flexible and part-time arrangements for practitioners who need them. We understand that sustainable clinical practice depends on realistic workloads and working conditions that fit your life outside the role. If you're interested in reduced hours, varied scheduling, or a community-based working pattern, raise it during the application process. We'd rather have an honest conversation about arrangements upfront than lose a strong candidate over something we can work around.
