Clinical Psychologist - Homelessness Services

We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced psychologist with a passion for working with people with complex lives to join our established team of psychologists working in homelessness services across Merseyside.

You will be joining a team of clinical psychologists with passion, knowledge and skills for working with people who experience homelessness and the systems around them. You will also be part of Liverpool University Hospitals Clinical Health Psychology Service, and based at Aintree Hospital, which is a long-established, supportive and welcoming team.

Liverpool is a great place to live, with fantastic energy and humour, a vibrant cultural life and easy access to the mountains and the sea. We can also offer beautiful architecture, lots of open space, good schools and a lower than average cost of living.

This is an opportunity to work creatively and systemically with colleagues from other services and providers, to promote psychological ways of working with people with complex needs.

Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created on 1 October 2019 following the merger of two adult acute Trusts, Aintree University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The merger provides an opportunity to reconfigure services in a way that provides the best healthcare services to the city and improves the quality of care and health outcomes that patients experience.

The Trust runs Aintree University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital, Liverpool University Dental Hospital and the Royal Liverpool University Hospital.

It serves a core population of around 630,000 people across Merseyside as well as providing a range of highly specialist services to a catchment area of more than two million people in the North West region and beyond.

- morbid psychological and physical health problems
- Effective communication of highly complex, contentious, delicate and often unwelcome information to patients, families and colleagues, within a highly emotive atmosphere, in a rapidly changing context.

with sensory and/or cognitive impairment). This requires a high level of interpersonal and communication skills. This may require confronting rigidly held unrealistic beliefs and expectations
- Provide specialised advice and consultation on care, therapy, and psychological aspects of physical health to multidisciplinary teams, staff groups, patients and carers (i.e. to non-psychologist staff only). This may involve such things as motivating patients who lack insight into their difficulties. Responsibility for managing own time, planning of patient’s clinics and patient/carer groups. Organising the workload of doctoral clinical psychology trainees and psychology assistants
- Use of neuropsychological/psychometric assessment tools requiring dexterity, speed and accuracy, where necessary. Interpretation of assessment results, requiring the use of analytical and reasoning skills. This will involve considering complex interrelated issues, such as possible effects of on-going treatment, physical health, mood and anxiety levels
