Pdcs Trainee Therapist
5 days ago
We are seeking a suitably experienced therapist to support the delivery of our group-based treatment programmes for adults with personality disorders. Our primary treatment models are DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy - skills) and MBT (Mentalization Based Therapy - skills and therapy).
The team offers a full range of services and there may be opportunities to be involved in other aspects of treatment (e.g., working with families, supporting with crisis calls). Most of our work is group based.
This role will suit someone who enjoys working in a clinical capacity. You will need to be skilled at managing emotional distress and the psychological impact of the work upon yourself. You will have sufficient clinical experience to enable you to mentor new and junior practitioners, and show clinical leadership within the context of group treatment (e.g., notice and take responsibility for associated aspects of care; record keeping, following up safeguarding etc). Clinical supervision and reflective practise sessions are provided.
Your primary role will involve actively providing therapy to clients in our structured treatment pathway. You will have a role in completing 1:1 pre-treatment assessments and engaging service users as they enter our team. This includes accurate completion of clinical records, completing risk assessments and safety plans, and following up safeguarding concerns.
You will have a role in delivering our 12-week introductory MBT group and in co-facilitating the extended 18-month therapy programme; weekly therapy (delivered in group format accompanied by individual sessions). Our current service need is for someone to work in our MBT programme, but the post requires the successful applicant to work flexibly and adaptably to meet the needs of the service.
You will facilitate some DBT skills groups and carry out one-to-one review sessions between modules and at the end of treatment.
All clinical staff undertake some training to manage crisis calls and may be required to support the Duty telephone lines at busy times.
