Assistant Psychologist

We are pleased to be recruiting two Assistant Psychologists to join our psychology team, due to the current Assistant Psychologists gaining places on the Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. The roles are supported and supervised by a psychologist.

Each post will be split across two Community Mental Health Teams (CMHTs) in Cwm Taf Morgannwg UHB. Location of each post will be agreed at interview.

Both roles are advertised as 30 hours/week, but there may be scope to increase to full time roles. This could be discussed at interview.

The role will involve helping the CMHT psychologists to prepare for and run therapy groups, conduct audits and evaluations, and carry out other tasks to support psychological working and service development in the CMHTs. You will also have a small individual caseload for clinical work which will be fully supported and supervised. You will be joining an innovative psychology service that is integrated into multi-disciplinary teams.

We have good links with the South Wales Doctoral Programme in Clinical Psychology.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this role; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply.
