London, United Kingdom Whittington Health NHS Trust Full time

Islington Community CAMHS is a large, energetic & creative service, working with CYP 0-18 yrs. We use a stepped care model of service delivery linked to the Thrive framework, are part of the CYP IAPT initiative, a CWP site, & are a training site for the school-based Mental Health Support Teams programme. We are looking for a clinical psychologist, counselling psychologist with an interest in working with neurodivergent children and their families to carry out assessment and to deliver groups to this population.

This is a diverse borough, densely populated with a resident child population of 40,000, extremes of affluence and poverty & a broad ethnic mix. We offer flexibility with working hours given the recent need to adapt to a mix of remote and on site & are looking to maintain the best of these working practices (roughly 50:50). We welcome applicants who reflect Islington's diverse ethnic/cultural mix.

The NDT consists of 7 different disciplines. We are a friendly supportive and holistic team integrated into a large CAMHS with professionals from a wide range of mental health and child health disciplines. It is a team with a good reputation for co-working, innovation and multi-disciplinary working. The applicants should be able to work with their multi agency and multi-disciplinary colleagues in a flexible and organised way, to support both assessment and intervention with CYP who have autism, ADHD and potentially other overlapping conditions such as learning disability, DCD, tic disorders, etc.

The successful applicants will be passionate about accessible service provision and improving health and wellbeing for vulnerable families.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. As a public sector organisation, we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
