The Balanced Practice is a multidisciplinary team of registered dietitians, therapists, and support staff specialized in eating disorder treatment for teens and adults across Ontario. We offer in-person services in Ottawa and virtual care across the province.
Our values are:
- empathy
- integrity
- communication
- respect
- inclusivity
We are proud to be a weight-inclusive, fat-positive, trauma-informed practice committed to dismantling diet culture and supporting meaningful recovery.
This Opportunity Is for You If…
You’re a people-person who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves organizing systems, and is passionate about mental health and inclusivity. You want to work somewhere that feels good—where your contributions matter, your growth is supported, and the mission is bigger than any one person.
This role is perfect for someone who wants to support a strong clinical team, improve systems that help people heal, and contribute meaningfully to the eating disorder field.
Our Vibe
We’re not your average clinic. We work hard and lead with heart. Our culture is fun, supportive, fast-paced, and rooted in authenticity. We value innovation, curiosity, and teamwork. We believe in showing up fully as ourselves—quirks and all—and we take care of each other while we take care of our clients. If you love being in the loop, being part of something that matters, and making things run smoothly behind the scenes, you’ll love it here.
If this is your vibe, you will LOVE working here ✨
