Knowledge and experience of a range of models of assessment, formulation and treatment to support young people presenting with complex difficulties is essential for this post. Providing supervision and support within the multidisciplinary team and across clinical networks will be an important feature of this senior role.
You will have broad understanding, skills and experience in mental health and also particular specialist interests and skills in evidence-based approaches that you will be able to share through direct clinical work and also through supervision, consultation and training.
Experience within a CAMHS service or relevant provision including working with children, young people and their families who have experienced early trauma is desirable. Knowledge and experience of DBT and supporting young people with managing risk behaviours would also be desirable.
We are seeking a confident, motivated and enthusiastic person, with a vision for improving the delivery of psychological, Recovery-focused and trauma-informed care within our supportive multidisciplinary ward setting.
You'll be able to work collaboratively and effectively in a multi-disciplinary context and be clear about the role of Psychology and Psychological Therapies within the MDT.
Personal qualities will include excellent listening and communication skills; resilience at times of change in the service and skills in supporting reflection and wellbeing in both yourself and others. There are opportunities to support the Clinical Psychology Doctoral Training at the University of Exeter.

The benefits of working in Somerset include the idyllic countryside, with our areas of outstanding beauty and stunning coastlines. You will get to enjoy these perks whilst still only being a stone's throw away from bustling city centres like Bristol, Bath and Exeter and only two hours away from London.
There are excellent educational facilities in the area and, when compared to other regions, house prices are reasonable. You will experience the best of both in Somerset, the countryside and the cosmopolitan - there is truly something for everyone
You'll be encouraged to access suitable supportive networks, including the Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Tier-4 CAMHS Psychologist peer reflective practice groups and the Child Psychology Meetings and CPD events.
