About the Role

We are seeking a qualified and accredited Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner to join our integrated primary care mental health team at HMP Millsike. As a PWP, you will play a key role in delivering high-quality, low-intensity cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) interventions to clients with mild to moderate anxiety and depression, aligning with Step 2 IAPT guidelines.

Key Responsibilities
  • Conduct person-centred assessments, manage referrals, and support individuals in their self-management and recovery journeys.
  • Deliver guided self-help in both 1:1 and group settings, drawing from CBT principles.
  • Collaborate in multi-disciplinary teams, attending meetings, and contributing to step-up and step-down arrangements.
  • Ensure accurate data entry and maintain high standards in clinical record-keeping and confidentiality.
  • Communicate effectively with clients, colleagues, and stakeholders, upholding Rethink Mental Illness values.
About You
  • Qualifications: Completed the IAPT Low Intensity National Programme and hold a PWP accreditation (BPS or BABCP).
  • Experience: Demonstrated experience providing low-intensity, evidence-based interventions in a stepped-care environment.
  • Skills: Excellent interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills; proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, and databases.

Experience in a prison setting or with offender populations is beneficial, though not essential.

Benefits
  • PULSE: our recognition, rewards, wellbeing, and benefits platform.
  • Wagestream: gives you instant access to up to 50% of your pay.
  • Wellbeing support: our Wellbeing hub gives physical, emotional, and mental health support.
  • Taking time for you: we work flexibly – you get to choose where you work, managing your own diary.
  • Planning for the future: We have a contributory pension scheme.

We are a leading charity provider of mental health services in England, supporting thousands of people through our groups, services, policy, campaigns, and advice and information. Our work supports us in delivering on our mission: "A better life for everyone severely affected by mental illness."

We are committed to becoming a truly anti-racist employer, campaigning organisation, and service provider. We actively encourage and welcome applications from everyone, including applicants with lived experience, those who are LGBTQIA+, people with a disability, and people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds.
