About One Behavioral Health
One Behavioral Health is an international behavioral health provider dedicated to helping individuals and families achieve emotional well-being through evidence-based outpatient care.

Position Overview
The Therapist will provide psychological therapy, counseling, and mental health support to individuals, couples, and families in an outpatient setting.

• Develop and implement treatment plans tailored to each client's goals.
• Provide psychoeducation to clients and families to enhance understanding of mental health.
• Collaborate with psychiatrists (when medication is part of treatment) and other clinicians to ensure holistic care.
• Track client progress, document sessions, and maintain strict confidentiality in line with DHA and clinic standards.
• Facilitate group therapy sessions where appropriate.
• Participate in team case discussions and contribute to a multidisciplinary care approach.
• Stay current with new developments in therapy techniques and mental health research.

Qualifications & Requirements
Education & Certification:

• Master's degree or Doctorate (PhD/PsyD) in Clinical Psychology, Counseling, or Psychotherapy.
• Specialized training or certification in therapeutic approaches (e.g., CBT, DBT, EMDR, trauma-focused therapy).

Licensing:

• Must hold a valid license to practice psychology/counseling in home country.
• Must be eligible for a Dubai Health Authority (DHA) Clinical Psychologist or Counseling Psychologist License.
• Preference for candidates with active DHA license, DHA eligibility letter, or transferable HAAD/MOH license.

Experience:

• Minimum 2-5 years of post-qualification therapy experience (outpatient or private practice preferred).
• Experience treating common mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, and trauma.

Skills & Competencies:

• Excellent therapeutic skills and ability to build strong rapport with clients.
• Strong communication, empathy, and active listening abilities.
• Ability to work effectively within a multicultural team.
• High ethical standards and commitment to client confidentiality.
• Proficiency in English (Arabic is a plus).

What We Offer

• Competitive and negotiable salary package.
• Work in a modern outpatient clinic with a supportive multidisciplinary team.
• Opportunities for professional growth, training, and continuous development.
• A meaningful role with impact on individuals, families, and the wider community.
