**Job overview**:
This an exciting time to join the team as we begin to launch the service. We aim to work closely with service user representatives and ‘experts by experience’ to continue to develop a service that closely maps onto local needs.

With compassion-focused, trauma informed practice at the heart of the service, we are excited to have the opportunity to make a positive difference to the lives of families in Cornwall.

We are looking for a compassionate, experienced mental health practitioner who aspires to work with women/birthing people who are experiencing significant mental distress connected to reproductive trauma, loss or separation.

The post holder will have a core qualification (eg RMN, OT, SW, art therapy, counselling/psychotherapy) along with previous experience of working within mental health services and will show a willingness to undertake further specialist evidence-based training relating to perinatal/reproductive trauma and/or loss (e.g. EMDR, TF-CBT, CFT)

**Main duties of the job**:
Our Maternal Mental Health Service (MMHS) aims to provide specialist psychological assessment and interventions for individuals experiencing high levels of distress and/or complex mental health difficulties that have arisen in the maternity, neonatal or reproductive context. Such difficulties may include Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) following birth, pregnancy/baby loss or separation and severe perinatal anxiety/fear of childbirth (tokophobia). Special consideration will be given to those vulnerable to poor health outcomes and who are disadvantaged due to social inequalities. Psychological approaches will be offered at the individual and group level through to teams, systems and community groups. The service aims to further develop and refine pathways in the following areas of local need, where these needs are not met in pre-existing services:
Reproductive / perinatal loss (e.g. including loss of a baby through miscarriage, termination for fetal abnormality, still birth, and neo-natal death)

Reproductive / perinatal trauma

Severe Perinatal Anxiety / Fear / Tokophobia (fear of pregnancy/ childbirth)

Parent-infant separation at birth (due to safeguarding concerns)
