Ideally you will have training in CFT, however full training to advanced practitioner level will be provided if not. Other treatment models are also utilised within the service which support the service users towards recovery (i.e. CBT, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, DBT and EMDR).

This is an on-site position, and full-time hours (37.5 per week) are preferable, although part-time hours or some flexible working arrangements will be considered.
