Postgraduate Clinical Associate Pathway

A standing invitation

New Pathways is a holistic mental health clinic and clinical community rooted in somatic psychotherapy, polyvagal-informed care, nervous system regulation, and integrative neuroscience.

We offer a Postgraduate Clinical Associate pathway for therapists—both early-career and experienced—who are seeking mentorship, integrative practice, and long-term growth within a collaborative clinic environment.

This page is a standing invitation. We grow intentionally and welcome the right people when there is alignment.

Who We Serve

We work primarily with adults, and also support some children and adolescents.

Our clinical work commonly includes:

  • Anxiety and nervous system dysregulation

  • PTSD and complex trauma

  • ADHD, and neurodivergent presentations

  • Chronic stress and complex/chronic illness

  • Relational and attachment-based challenges

We practice from a neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed lens.

The Postgraduate Clinical Associate Pathway

  • This pathway is designed for therapists who have completed their core training and wish to deepen their clinical skills under a mentorship model.

    It is well suited for:

    • Therapists transitioning from medical, hospital, or community settings

    • Clinicians seeking to expand into somatic, polyvagal, and neurofeedback-informed care

    • Experienced therapists looking for structured growth, consultation, and integration, rather than working in isolation

A Note on Fit

At New Pathways we prioritize sustainable growth for our clinic environment and our clinicians who join our team. We believe that creating the right ecosystem translates into good client care and clinician well being. This is not for people who are looking to quickly fill their practice - but to develop their clinical skills and place in our ecosystem.

This pathway is best suited for clinicians who want to grow their skills within a mentorship-based, relational, and integrative model of care.
