Clinical Psychologist | Private Practice | Bundall
Nuevo Medical is seeking a Clinical Psychologist to join the founding Allied Health team at our new private multidisciplinary medical centre in Bundall on the Gold Coast.
The position will initially commence part-time from October 2026, with the opportunity to progressively increase days and transition into a full-time role as the Psychology service and patient caseload grow.
Nuevo brings together General Practice, Cardiology, Specialist Medicine, Psychology, Dietetics, Exercise Physiology, Physiotherapy, Radiology and Pathology within one purpose-built clinical environment.
Psychology will be an important part of this model.
Rather than working as an isolated service, our Clinical Psychologist will have the opportunity to work alongside GPs, Cardiologists, Specialists and other Allied Health practitioners to support patients across both traditional mental health presentations and the psychological aspects of broader medical care.
This may include patients managing chronic disease, cardiovascular risk, rehabilitation, weight management, behaviour change, lifestyle modification, adjustment to illness and long-term health goals.
The role offers the opportunity to build a strong private psychology caseload while also helping shape how Psychology integrates into the broader Nuevo clinical model from the beginning.

This may include patients managing chronic disease, cardiovascular risk, rehabilitation, weight management, behaviour change, lifestyle modification, adjustment to illness and long-term health goals.
The role offers the opportunity to build a strong private psychology caseload while also helping shape how Psychology integrates into the broader Nuevo clinical model from the beginning.
A genuinely multidisciplinary model
Nuevo is designed around the idea that patients often need more than a single consultation or discipline.
A patient may require medical oversight from their GP, input from a Cardiologist or Specialist, psychological support, nutrition intervention, Exercise Physiology, Physiotherapy and ongoing review.
Our Clinical Psychologist will be able to work collaboratively with these clinicians where appropriate, with the aim of creating more coordinated and effective care around the patient.
This may involve:
Working alongside GPs on Mental Health Treatment Plans and ongoing patient management
Supporting Cardiology patients where psychological wellbeing, stress, anxiety, adherence or behaviour change are affecting cardiovascular health
Collaborating with Dietitians and Exercise Physiologists around weight management, metabolic health, lifestyle change and long-term behaviour change
Supporting patients undertaking rehabilitation following illness, injury or significant health events
Contributing to structured multidisciplinary care programs
Participating in case discussions and coordinated care planning where appropriate
Helping develop new Psychology pathways and programs as the Nuevo model evolves
Clinical independence, patient choice and professional judgement remain fundamental to the way care is delivered.
The clinical work
The role may involve patients presenting with areas including:
Anxiety and depression
Stress and adjustment
Health-related anxiety
Behaviour change
Chronic disease and psychological wellbeing
Weight and body-image concerns
Sleep and lifestyle factors
Motivation and adherence to health goals
Adjustment following diagnosis or significant health events
Relationship, family and workplace stress
General adult psychology
There is also significant opportunity for the successful Clinical Psychologist to develop their own areas of clinical interest within Nuevo.
Coordinated care programs
An important part of the Nuevo model will be the development of structured programs that bring medical and Allied Health care together.
Psychology may contribute to programs across areas such as:
Cardiometabolic health
Cardiac rehabilitation
Weight and body composition
Chronic disease management
Behaviour and lifestyle change
Rehabilitation and return to activity
Healthy ageing and longevity
Preventative health
The Clinical Psychologist will have the opportunity to work with the broader clinical team to help develop these pathways and determine how Psychology can best support patients within them.

Why Nuevo Medical
Nuevo Medical is being built around a different approach to healthcare.
Rather than placing a collection of independent practitioners in the same building, Nuevo is designed to make it easier for General Practice, Specialist Medicine and Allied Health to work together around the patient.
For a Clinical Psychologist, this means the opportunity to build a strong private practice while being surrounded by a broader clinical team and having greater opportunity to contribute to the patient's overall care.
Psychological health has an important role in chronic disease, cardiovascular health, rehabilitation, behaviour change, adherence, weight management and long-term wellbeing. Nuevo gives Psychology the opportunity to become part of those broader conversations.
We are looking for someone who wants to do more than simply consult from a room.
We want a Clinical Psychologist who is excited by the opportunity to help build the service, develop multidisciplinary care pathways and become part of the founding Allied Health team at Nuevo Medical Bundall.
