Blandford Forum, United Kingdom Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Are you an experienced Hi Intensity therapist (CBT or Counsellor) looking to support families, to help them remain and stay together. Dorset Council's Safeguarding Families Together team has an opportunity for you.

The Safeguarding Families Together (SFT) approach recognises the importance of adult workers to work across the service to offer wrap around care to bring about changes to children and families’ lives. SFT is a strength-based model, and a way of working with the adults within families so that where-ever possible they can all stay together, and children can remain safely at home. SFT practitioners will help families to identify what changes could be made in their daily life and provide the dedicated support to enable them to achieve this. One of the principles of the service is the use of ‘motivational interviewing’ techniques to motivate parents to make, maintain changes and reducing the risk of significant harm to children.

Work in a co located MDT team with social care practitioners and

Domestic Abuse Officer
Probation Officer
Probation Service Officer
Domestic Abuse Practitioner
Drug & Alcohol Worker
Mental Health Workers

The teams will work together to support families to keep together where it is safe to do so. Our approach is to support families using a technique of motivational interviewing and using CBT and/or counselling skills which are designed to empower and engage parents to make the positive changes needed to achieve improved outcomes for their children and their own wellbeing. By meeting the complex needs of the adults, we can reduce the risk to children.

All practitioners will attend group case management supervision in a MDT team with social workers, substance misuse workers and DV workers on top of their standard supervision.

Provide trauma focused CBT or counselling treatment in patient homes using evidenced based models

Receive clinical supervision
