Northampton, United Kingdom Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for an 8a Family and Systemic Psychotherapist to join our CAMHS Intensive Outreach Team (IOT). We are willing to consider newly-qualified FTs at band 7 and also those in the final year of training. We are happy to consider job sharing and part-time working. Please do contact us to talk over anything about the post.

IOT is a Northamptonshire service that provides intensive, time-limited, home-based support and intervention for young people in mental-health crisis. The team aims to prevent unnecessary or potentially unhelpful admissions to Inpatient CAMHS by working with families to stabilise difficult situations and through providing intensive support in the home. We work closely with our CAMHS partners to plan the longer-term care that is needed too. We also work closely with our CAMHS inpatient teams to reduce length of admission and/or to offer a more intensive approach on discharge, if this is required.

We are currently recruiting the MDT component of the team (family-therapy, psychiatry, occupational therapy and clinical psychology). We hope this will increase the interventions that we can provide and also help our processes of assessment and formulation, as well as risk assessment, management, and stabilisation.

If you have any questions regarding this advert, please contact Sandra Mehrtens (IOT Team Manager) on 03000 271391, or Naz Wagle (Consultant clinical psychologist and systemic family therapist) on 03000 270832.

As the team’s family-therapist you would assist with assessment, care planning and therapeutic interventions. We are building up our ability to provide short-term, brief interventions and your input on this would be very welcome. We also hope you’ll be able to provide systemic advice to support the team in their duties, to provide systemic consultation for cases, and to take part in team-training and our supervision processes.

You would be supervised managerially from within the team and by an experienced family-therapist for systemic supervision from outside IOT. There is a well-established and very supportive systemic family-therapy service within NHFT CAMHS, but within the Inpatient, IOT and Crisis team-cluster itself, you would also be one of three to five family-therapists. We frequently take trainees from different training courses and you may be expected to supervise some of their work also.

NHFT is an integrated primary care and mental health Trust, providing physical, mental health and specialty services in both hospital settings and out in the community. Because we put the person at the centre of all we do, we focus on delivering care that is as easy to access as possible. This means many of our services can be provided at home, work or in schools.

For further information on the advertised role, please refer to the job description located under the Supporting Documents heading. The full person specification can be accessed under the ‘About You’ Section of the document.
