We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic Graduate Mental Health Worker to work within Enfys (a psychology led service for children who are looked after). This growing team supports families of children who are in foster care, residential care and adopted children. This post is community based and offers a fantastic opportunity to work alongside families in their homes as well as linking in with schools and other agencies involved in a child's care, particularly with social services. The post holder will be part of the wider Child Development and Health Psychology Service.

You will contribute to the services provided for children, young people and their families with regard to assessment, intervention and consultation on emotional wellbeing. Enfys are a DDP-informed team, and also draw on a range of psychological therapies e.g. systemic, ACT, DBT. You will promote service initiatives, take a role in enhancing multi-disciplinary team work and developing links with the wider network.

Under the supervision of a Clinical Psychologist within the service, the Graduate Mental Health Worker will;
Co-deliver therapeutic groups to foster carers, adoptive parents and professionals

Offer support young people and their families in understanding the impact of developmental trauma

Support Clinical Psychologists in consultations with social workers, education staff and other professionals within the care group
