Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP) Band 5

Permanent -1 WTE

Tower Hamlets Talking Therapies are looking to recruit full-time, enthusiastic and motivated Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners to join our dynamic and innovative service.

Based in East London we have provided psychological therapy services to general practice and the local community for over 30 years. We are a stepped care service offering evidence based interventions at Steps 2 and 3. Our team consists of Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners, Cognitive Behaviour Therapists and Clinical & Counselling Psychologists. As a service, we actively encourage different theoretical interests and offer specialist areas of development such as LTC/Eating Disorders/Perinatal.

**This post involves**:

- Providing Low Intensity interventions from a range of CBT based self-management interventions for clients with mild to moderate anxiety and depression
- Working with people from different cultural backgrounds and ages, using interpreters when necessary
- Involvement in Group and Community Engagement work

We have a firm commitment to CPD and offer high quality supervision as well as the opportunity to participate in team initiatives. The team works closely with a variety of trained professionals across a range of therapeutic orientations including, DIT, Systemic, IPT, CBT and Psychodynamic.

The post-holder will work within the IAPT service providing high volume low intensity interventions which will be a range of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) based self-management interventions to service to clients with mild to moderate anxiety and depression.

The post holder will work with people with different cultural backgrounds and ages, using interpreters when necessary and should be committed to equal opportunities.

Psychological Well-being Practitioners provide assessment, triage, treatment and mental health promotion activities within primary care and community settings, for people experiencing common mental health problems in the self-management of their recovery. Treatment programmes are designed to aid clinical improvement and social inclusion - including return to work and meaningful activity or other occupational activities, with the aim to enable service users to manage their own difficulties and reach their maximum potential.

PWPs do this through the provision of information and support for evidence-based low-intensity psychological interventions. These interventions place a greater emphasis on patient self-management and are less burdensome then traditional psychological treatments. Examples include guided self-help which may be delivered through face-to-face or telephone sessions, and computerised cognitive behavioural therapy.

The post holder will make a vital contribution to the overall delivery of psychological therapy services.

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.

We have always been a proactive and forward looking service, with a strong commitment to meeting the needs of the diverse community in which we are located and we particularly welcome applicants with fluency in Sylheti.

It is expected that PWPs will have a number of main roles, which include the following.
- Planning, managing, and implementing therapeutic interventions utilising a facilitated self-help approach.
- Face to face work with service users with common mental health problems such as anxiety, anger management and depression across service sites and GP surgeries.
- Telephone Low Intensity work with service users.
- Telephone liaison with other professionals to expedite signposting to other service where appropriate.
- Integrated working with other elements of the services provided by THTT
