PACFA has been advocating to headspace National Youth Mental Health Foundation about the high standards of PACFA member counsellors and psychotherapists and their availability to support the immense demand for headspace’s services.
In September 2021, headspace sent information about PACFA members to all of their centres in Australia, advising that counsellors and psychotherapists who have met the following training requirements can be considered for employment as a headspace clinician:
- Bachelor or Masters level qualification in counselling
- Clinical PACFA membership; including
- minimum 2 years post qualification counselling experience, including minimum 750 client contact hours (statutory declaration required for client contact hours)
- minimum of 75 hours professional supervision
