Explore flexible counselling careers and internships with Hollyburn Support Services.
We offer clinicians and practicum students the opportunity to grow within a supportive, collaborative environment based in North Vancouver, with services also offered in Nanaimo, Vancouver, Roberts Creek, Surrey, and virtually across British Columbia.

- Room to shape what comes next
As our services continue to grow, there may be opportunities to contribute specialized expertise, new programs, and expanded services.
We’re Especially Interested in Connecting With Practitioners Who Offer
- Counselling in additional languages
- Specialized or niche areas of practice
- Neurodiversity-affirming counselling and supports
- Culturally responsive or community-specific services
While we are not always actively recruiting, we welcome inquiries from practitioners whose experience or language skills would expand the services available to our community.
Practicum & Internship opportunities
We offer two types of placements:
- Practicum placements for graduate students completing supervised hours as part of a Master’s degree in Counselling, Social Work, or a related field.
- Internship placements for post-graduate students accumulating additional supervised hours toward professional registration.
We are intentional in our selection process and tend to prioritize mature students who bring meaningful life experience, professionalism, and alignment with our commitment to ethical, high-quality care.
Students and interns gain real-world experience in private practice, working directly with clients while receiving thoughtful support and clinical oversight throughout their placement.
