We are seeking an exceptional Specialist Mental Health Midwife to join our Perinatal Trauma and Loss Service.

The service will be based alongside the Perinatal Mental Health Team and work closely with a Principal Clinical Psychologist. The post-holder will help to assess patients who are experiencing severe mental health difficulties because of perinatal loss and trauma, delivering therapeutic interventions and groups, particularly for those women who go on to become pregnant again.

You will also provide training and support to maternity services, promoting the integration of services to improve the experience of women with severe mental health difficulties.
