We welcome newly qualified applicants who can be initially appointed at a band 7 with preceptorship to 8A in due course.

We are looking for someone also skilled in multi-disciplinary treatment planning, who can form the premises of respectful and collegial relationships with members of various disciplines and rise to the challenges posed by working in large teams and across services.

The post-holder will be expected to become proficient in the delivery of one or more specialist evidence based psychological interventions (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for the PD lead position or Schema Therapy for the generic role) and contribute to the management and running of these therapeutic programmes.

This is an exciting opportunity to work within supportive MDTs and highly experienced clinical/counselling psychology and psychotherapy colleagues. We are looking for someone competent and experienced in delivering psychological assessments and interventions who is capable of assessing and managing clients and situations at high risk. Experience of offering consultations and developing clinical formulations is essential. The successful candidate will need to demonstrate experience with clients who experience severe emotional dysregulation and distress, often with a history of trauma and multiple problematic issues.
