Clinical Psychologist or Developmental Post

Penzance, United Kingdom Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Clinical psychology service to children and adolescent and their families with complex psychological problems, across all sectors of care: providing highly specialist psychological assessment and therapy at the same time as offering advice and consultation on client’s psychological care to non-psychologist colleagues and to other, non-professional carers, working autonomously within professional guidelines and the overall
framework of the team’s.

We are looking for a band 7 or 8a Clinical Psychologists, depending on experience, to join our growing psychology team within Cornwall CAMHS. The CAMHS teams offer a range of services according to the THRIVE model (AFC-Tavistock model) and specialist care pathways. The posts involve offering assessment and intervention for our specialist ‘getting help’ and ‘getting more help’ pathways as well as consultation and support into our newly developed Early Help Network consultation meetings.

In collaboration with Exeter University we have trained a significant number of Clinical Associate Psychologists to support assessments and deliver CAMHS interventions in school settings. Working alongside these new psychologists, implementing our Psychological Therapies Strategy will be a large part of the role.

Our psychology leadership team currently consists of a Chief Psychological Professions Officer (CPPO) as well as a Heads of Psychological Professions. We are a supportive and innovative team of Psychologists and Psychological Therapists in Children's and we are keen to develop our services in line with best practice for psychological care, trauma informed approaches and compassionate leadership. We are building our teams by developing further lead Consultant Psychologist posts in each service line to support our service and hoping to continue to grow and expand out services within CAMHS and children’s community neurodevelopmental and health services. we are keen to support the continued professional development of our psychology team to develop expertise in a range of therapeutic interventions as well supporting leadership development and supervision skills. We are actively involved in a number of clinical research trials and as a service are keen for clinical staff to be involved in research and practice based evidence.

The post offers a good balance between early help/preventative/consultation work and highly specialist interventions for young people with more acute and complex needs. Training and supervision in a range of interventions to deliver and support our NICE informed care pathways is supported and encouraged.

This post will be based in the West of the County, based in Redruth but will offer some clinical time to the Penzance team.

We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.

We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.

Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increases the numbers of people who use our services.
