City & Hackney CAMHS
Band 7 Specialist CAMHS Practitioner (open to Nursing,Clinical/Educational/Counselling Psychology, Child Psychotherapy, Family Therapy, CYP-IAPT CBT Therapy)
1.0wte - Permanent
- Are you a qualified clinician (Nurse, Clinical/Educational/Counselling Psychologist, Child Psychotherapist, Family Therapist, CYP-IAPT CBT Therapist) who is passionate about using your knowledge to make a real difference to the lives of young people in the City of London & Hackney?
- Do you have experience of delivering psychological assessments/interventions and want to use your skills within an established specialist CAMHS team within a socially, culturally and economically diverse inner London borough?
- Are you looking to work in creative ways with families and multi-agency systems to engage young people and communities who may traditionally be less well served by services?
- Do you have strong engagement skills and are interested in working in an outreach capacity and in schools to create whole system change to improve the mental health and wellbeing of young people.

If so, we would be delighted for you to join us in the Behaviour Support and Outreach Team in City and Hackney CAMHS

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 conduct/oppositional behaviours alongside co-existing difficulties, such as emotionally based school refusal, 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, Educational Psychologists, Social Workers, Psychiatrists, Child Psychotherapists and CBT therapists.

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, ABFT, parenting and narrative approaches), and group work (e.g. Non Violent Resistance and our outreach Boxing group).

As part of the wider Hackney CAMHS Alliance, we also work closely with our partner agencies (including statutory and voluntary organisations) to provide specialist advice, consultation and multi-agency responses.

As part of the post, you may also provide a school consultation role as a CAMHS Worker in School (CWIS) as part of the Wellbeing and Mental Health in Schools (WAMHS) Programme.

Service user participation and shared decision making is embedded within our service.

Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive - so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.

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.
