Couples & Marital Therapist

We are seeking a licensed mental health professional who genuinely enjoys couples and relationship therapy and wants to do this work well.

This role is for clinicians who are comfortable with emotional intensity, conflict, and complexity — and who use structure, clinical judgment, and relational frameworks to help couples move out of stuck patterns.

At Limestone Clinic, couples therapy is treated as a specialty, not an afterthought. Our couples clinicians work with motivated adult couples seeking meaningful change and are supported by strong systems, thoughtful client matching, and a collaborative clinical culture.

This is a role providing psychotherapy services to adults, primarily couples.

This Role Is Not a Fit If:

• You prefer primarily individual therapy and only occasionally see couples
• You avoid conflict or high emotional intensity in session
• You rely on sessions being calm and affirming to feel competent
• You dislike structure, direction, or clinical accountability
• You want full autonomy without consultation or feedback

No hard feelings — just clarity.

“Couples work here is treated as skilled, intentional work — not something you’re expected to ‘just manage.’ The structure and consultation make a huge difference.” — Limestone Clinician

Limestone Clinic is a values-driven psychotherapy practice in Kingston, ON, providing thoughtful, evidence-based therapy for adults. We’re known for doing therapy well: ethically, relationally, and with integrity. Our work is grounded in strong clinical thinking, nervous-system–informed approaches, and the OG - human connection.

We believe therapists do their best work when they feel supported, respected, and aren't burning out. That means clear expectations, solid systems, boundaries, and a culture that values accountability, curiosity, honesty, and humour. We take our work seriously without taking ourselves too seriously.

At Limestone, you’ll find smart, kind clinicians who care about growth, collaboration, and providing excellent care. We talk things through, support one another, and value being good humans as much as being skilled clinicians.

If you’re looking for a clinic that prioritizes quality care, ethical practice, and a healthy team culture, you'll feel right at home here.
