    sessions per case) to corporate employees and their families facing stress, burnout,
    grief, relationship challenges, or mild-to-moderate anxiety and depression.
  • Evidence-Based Practice: Utilize evidence-based modalities, such as Cognitive
    Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), or Acceptance and
    Commitment Therapy (ACT), tailored to an EAP context.
  • Cultural & Linguistic Adaptation: Deliver care in a culturally sensitive, empathetic
    manner, adapting clinical frameworks to the unique cultural norms, familial structures,
    and workplace dynamics of Senegal
  • Administrative Compliance: Use Lyra's secure digital platform to manage scheduling,
    case notes, and global data privacy compliance.

    Clinical Social Work
  • Experience: Minimum 3 years of post-qualification clinical experience.
  • Registration: Registered with the local governing body as a psychologist, counsellor or clinical

  • Modality: Proven experience in short-term therapy or employee assistance programs (EAP).
    Psychoanalytic backgrounds are welcome, but you must be able to practice brief, structured
    interventions.
  • Tech Setup: A secure, confidential space with high-speed internet for telehealth video sessions.

  • Connect with highly compatible clients
