The Neighbourhood’s are guided by collective leadership, providing evidence-based psychological and medical interventions to patients with mental health difficulties. The patient’s journey is guided by psychological formulation of his or her presenting needs and difficulties, which subsequently inform the development of a plan of care for the patient.

Right from the start of joining the team, a clear and ongoing conversation about your skills and personal career progression, which is managed through the Trust’s appraisal process.
