As part of the Behaviour Support and Outreach pathway, you will work collaboratively with children, young people and their families who present with multiple and complex needs relating to behaviours that challenge, alongside co-existing difficulties, such as emotionally based school avoidance, mood disorders, attachment and trauma, and neurodevelopmental conditions.

You will join a warm and experienced, multi-disciplinary team of clinicians - working together with Clinical Psychologists, Systemic Psychotherapists, Nurses, Social Workers, Psychiatrists, Child Psychotherapists and CBT therapists. You will offer line management and supervision within the pathway to support the development of your colleagues and to support the safe and effective running of the pathway.

Our team provide a variety of comprehensive specialist assessments and evidence-based therapeutic interventions, including individual approaches (e.g. CBT, DBT, EMDR, IPT-A, VIG and psychotherapy), systemic and family work (e.g. Family Therapy clinics, parenting and narrative approaches), and group work (e.g. Non Violent Resistance and an outreach Boxing group).

It would also be highly desirable for applicants to possess strong engagement skills, the ability to work creatively in relation to behaviour that challenges, manage risk and work effectively with complex multi-agency networks.

To support you, a high standard of clinical supervision will be provided by an experienced clinician from your professional discipline. We will support you to develop specialist assessment and intervention skills and pursue specific areas of interest, including service development projects where appropriate. You will have opportunities for reflective practice, training, continuous professional development and well-being support.

We welcome applicants who enjoy working effectively as part of a team, have competencies in working with families from diverse cultures and ethnicities, and have a commitment to delivering high quality, evidence based practice. Applicants who have experience and appreciation of some of the richness and complexities of working inter-culturally are welcomed.
