**Location: Sailsbury, Trowbridge, Chippenham**
**“Newly Qualified Applications Considered”**
At Turning Point we provide services across the whole country which delivers
end to end drug and alcohol treatment and support, family services, housing
advice and support for those in contact with the criminal justice system,
needle exchange system, and custody outreach. We are a specialist in
delivering whole treatment system approaches across cities and county areas,
which has led to the reduction in people falling through gaps between services
and delivers improved outcomes.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly skilled Practitioner Psychologist to
join our successful team within Wiltshire. You will use your expertise to work
within our core Substance Use service, and play a pivotal role in implementing
the provision of trauma-informed psycho-social interventions. You will also
offer psychological assessment, formulation, and evidence-based interventions
to people affected by substance use, and co-occurring mental ill-health. This
is an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic, creative and caring multi-
disciplinary team.
### Role Responsibility
You will offer clinical guidance, training and leadership to a team that
delivers psycho-social interventions to both individuals and groups. You will
use your skill to build on a range of innovative approaches with people who
use substances and offer practical advice on trauma-informed evidence-based
psychological interventions to colleagues as well as local agencies and
organisations. We will also expect you to have a small caseload of service
users with complex needs, providing specialist psychological assessments and
therapies.
Further, you will contribute to the strategic direction and development of the
service as a whole. This will include building strong professional links with
other statutory and voluntary service providers and using your expertise to
put relevant support and education structures in place. You will also explore
ways to continuously improve our services and integrate wider issues -
housing, employment and finances, for example – into the overall treatment
process. You will be invited to work with our national team of Clinical,
Counselling and Forensic Psychologists to develop psychological and psycho-
social approaches used across services, and to pursue a therapeutic specialism
that fits with service needs.
### The Ideal Candidate
Along with up to date registration through the Health and Social Professions
Council (HCPC) as a Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist, you will
need a doctorate in your professional specialism and proven ability to deliver
psychological services. Your experience of leading and supervising clinical
staff will ideally be supported by, experience of working with substance use
service users, and experience of working with people who have been affected by
domestic abuse. Formal training in supervision, whilst not essential, would be
desirable. Excellent communication skills, adaptability and commitment to the
Recovery Agenda, will all contribute to you becoming a vital member of our
clinical leadership team.
We are able to consider final year trainees who are approaching registration
within a preceptorship role.
Previous experiences of working with young people and supervising others in
Psychological roles would desirable.
