Are you a qualified mental health professional seeking specialist training in psychodynamic psychotherapy? Join our Specialist Psychotherapies Service as a Band 7 Trainee Psychotherapist.
This opportunity is ideal for experienced practitioners from core mental health professions—nursing, OT, social work, or arts therapy—who are passionate about psychodynamic approaches and committed to professional growth. The role includes a fully supported training programme leading to British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) accreditation.

Applicants should have at least five years’ post-registration experience and prior therapeutic training (e.g. counselling, CBT, DBT, IAPT). Strong communication skills, reflective practice, and a commitment to development are essential. Experience with psychological interventions and understanding of psychodynamic principles are desirable.
This is a unique chance to train while working in a supportive, multidisciplinary team. The Trust values diversity, development, and empowering staff. If you're ready to advance your therapeutic career, we encourage you to apply.
