We are looking for a psychologist for a newly opened specialist psychiatric clinic

We have moved into completely renovated premises at the top of the building at Atlasmuren 3, with a stunning view of the Karlberg Canal and Kungsholmen.

The clinic opened in the autumn of 2025 and now needs to grow with more employees who want to be involved in shaping a new specialist psychiatric clinic.

Description

The Specialist Psychiatric Clinic 8, S:t Eriksplan is an outpatient clinic that receives patients with general psychiatric diagnoses, but not patients with psychotic diagnoses, bipolar disorder type I, or those over 65 years old, as these are treated at other clinics. The work at the clinic is based on SLSO's care processes according to evidence-based methods for investigation, assessment, and treatment.

We are now looking for another psychologist who wants to help drive patient-safe care with continuous follow-up of implemented treatment. The work as a psychologist at the clinic includes psychiatric assessment and in-depth diagnostics as well as treatment individually or in groups. As the clinic is newly opened and we are gradually increasing the influx of patients, the work will change over time as we need to adapt to the patients coming to the clinic.

You will be an important part of the joint effort to develop a sustainable working method that benefits our patients and creates a good working environment.

We highly value collaboration skills and the ability to see the big picture.
