We are seeking experienced Educational Psychologists in Malaysia to provide expert consultation, assessment, and intervention services remotely. Our mission is to empower practitioners to build a flexible private practice while helping students overcome learning barriers and achieve their full potential.

The Opportunity:

This is a unique opportunity for Educational Psychologists in Malaysia to apply their specialised skills outside of a traditional institutional setting.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide Psychoeducational Consultation: Conduct online sessions with parents to help them understand their child's learning profile, developmental needs, and specific learning difficulties.
• Design and Deliver Learning Interventions: Create and implement evidence-based, one-on-one remote intervention programs for students struggling with issues such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, attention difficulties (e.g., ADHD), or general study skills.
• Conduct Educational Assessments: Perform remote assessments using a combination of clinical interviews, validated online tools, and guided observations to identify students' cognitive strengths and weaknesses and inform intervention planning.
• Support for School-Related Issues: Provide counselling and strategies for students dealing with exam anxiety, low motivation, perfectionism, and social challenges at school.
• Parent and School Liaison Support: Advise and empower parents on how to communicate effectively and collaborate with their child's school to advocate for appropriate support and accommodations.
