We are looking for a Senior Practitioner to join our Self-Harm Service.

Self-Harm is when someone deliberately harms themselves. It is a very personal response to a complex range of different factors such as dealing with emotional pain, feeling disconnected, and/or feeling stressed. There is also increasing evidence of the link between the experience of trauma and self-harm.

Penumbra began to develop a specific support service for young people who self-harm around 25 years ago. Today, we remain one of a few organisations that has specific services for people who self-harm. Currently we provide services for people (currently 16+) who self-harm in Edinburgh, Aberdeen, North Ayrshire and South Ayrshire (where we work with secondary schools and people 12-18 years), Fife and Dundee.

We have secured funding from the Scottish Government to further develop this work so that we can deliver a programme of support, resources and education that will inform future planning for self-harm support. This is an exciting opportunity to play a role in work of significance and impact, the learning from which will help shape the Scottish Government’s planned self-harm strategy, and action plan.

Leading a locally based practitioner team you will support young people (12-18) who self harm through 1:1, group, peer support, online delivery. You will work with local partners and schools to deliver this service.

We want you to grow and thrive We will support you on your own career path; developing new skills, accessing formal and informal learning experiences and providing opportunities to put your continual progress into practice.
