  • Psychologists working in salaried roles earning below their market rate
  • Early-career psychologists wanting a supported flexible start with a consistent caseload

    • Who we are

  • Synapsea is a telehealth mental health clinic launching in Australia in 2026. We are building a small carefully selected founding clinical team psychologists who want to do serious clinical work without the administrative burden of running their own practice.
  • We are not a large aggregator platform. We are a focused clinic with a clear model and a founding team that has direct input into how we operate.
  • Founding team positions are limited.

    • What we cover so you dont have to

  • Medicare billing and claiming
  • Patient scheduling and reminders
  • Intake assessments and referral management
  • Clinical platform and telehealth infrastructure
  • Professional indemnity insurance coverage
  • Marketing and patient acquisition
  • Before you apply a straight answer to the obvious question

    • Why take 65% when I could run my own practice at 100%

    Running your own practice at 100% means you also absorb rent software insurance billing time no-show losses and the months it takes to build a referral pipeline. Most solo practitioners net 5570% of their gross billings after overhead and spend significant unpaid hours getting there.

    With Synapsea 65% is your floor not your ceiling after costs. And your time outside sessions is yours.

    If you currently work for a clinic or hospital at a lower split or a fixed salary the comparison is more direct.
