Specialist Clinical Psychologist

3 weeks ago


Isleworth, United Kingdom West London NHS Trust Full time

Are you interested in a role where every day is different and where you can use a variety of psychology skills? If so, we are looking for a caring and innovative clinical psychologist to join us. There is a huge variety of work within this role and you will undertake neuro-psychological assessments which may contribute to a diagnosis of dementia as well as provide a range of post-diagnostic therapeutic options.

These include providing groups and individual therapy for people with dementia as well as for their carers. You will also work with patients who have co-existing mental health needs in addition to their cognitive difficulties.

The service works with care homes to help with residents whose behaviour challenges their care givers and you will provide psychological expertise to this part of the service. You will also provide consultation to help promote psychological thinking within the MDT and the wider system around the patient.

The London boroughs of Ealing, Hounslow and Hammersmith & Fulham are culturally highly diverse and there is a real commitment to meet the needs of the communities we serve. You will be based in the borough of Hounslow and will be involved in ensuring psychology provision is appropriate and accessible for this community.

Our teams reflect the cultural diversity of our communities and we are developing our outreach abilities to help us engage with seldom heard communities.

Our all-age Cognitive Impairment and Dementia Service (CIDS) has now been joined by a Specialist Older Adult Mental Health Service (SOAMHS) which is a community service for people over 70 which works closely with our older adult in-patient service.

So although your main role would be in CIDS, there would be opportunities to work with the other teams too.

You will also supervise the Assistant Psychologist for the team and would be able to participate in research projects which are a feature of CIDS.

West London NHS Trust is one of the most diverse providers of mental health, community and social care in the UK.

Our 3,982 staff care for people in hospital and in the community, helping them to recover and go on to lead full and productive lives. We aim to be the best organisation of our kind in the country.

We provide care and treatment for more than 800,000 people living in the London boroughs of Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham and Hounslow, delivering services in the community (at home, in GP surgeries and care homes), hospital, specialist clinics and forensic (secure) units.

We’re rated good overall by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Together, we’re committed to promoting hope and wellbeing, working with patients, service users, carers, families and partners across the communities we serve.

We are keen to ensure that our workforce reflects the community it serves, particularly in terms of ethnicity, gender, disability, LGBTQ+ and experience of mental illness.

The Hounslow CIDS team is welcoming, supportive and values psychological input into patient care. As the nature of the work we do and the client population is so diverse, flexibility of approach is essential to truly meet client needs. There is an emphasis on service development to ensure the needs of our patients are met and new ideas and evidence based approaches are welcomed. Links with third sector organisations such as AGE UK are encouraged.
