Psychologist/Neuropsychologist - Hybrid Role (Therapy & Assessment)

Beacon Light Neuropsychology, LLC (BLN) is seeking a licensed psychologist/neuropsychologist for a unique hybrid role that initially involves developing and launching our psychotherapy services while conducting several pediatric and young adult assessments per month. After services are launched, this role will shift to a mix of therapy and assessment. This is an ideal opportunity for a psychologist who enjoys a mix of clinical work and assessment, and who is excited to engage in program development. Long-term, this position could become focused exclusively on therapy or assessment based on clinician preference and the needs of the organization.

About Us

BLN is a private practice located in downtown Portland, ME. Founded in 2022, we offer neuropsychological evaluations and parent coaching with a focus on children, adolescents, and young adults.

Our vision is to serve as a trusted, steady guide—a beacon of insight and support—helping each client move toward understanding, peace of mind, and well-being. Our mission is to provide high-quality, personalized psychological care that translates insight into meaningful action. We work collaboratively with each client and their support network, delivering practical strategies that make a tangible difference in daily life.

We are grounded in values that define every aspect of our work:

Quality: We deliver high-quality, evidence-based care with professionalism, precision, and excellence.
Approachability: We create a welcoming, non-intimidating environment where clients feel safe and supported.
Actionable Help: We focus on practical, real-world strategies that empower clients and families.
Attentiveness: We prioritize clear communication, responsiveness, and follow-through.
Comprehensiveness: We take a holistic, thoughtful approach that considers the full picture of each individual.

We believe that when clinicians are respected and supported, client care naturally improves—and that’s why we’re building a team that values integrity, collaboration, and meaningful clinical work.
