Job description

Job responsibilities

We have a well-established framework for reflective, caseload and peer supervision, as well as access to model-specific supervision for people using EMDR, IPT or facilitating our DBT groups. We have accredited BABCP practitioners who can supervise and support people who are themselves looking for full CBT accreditation. There are good in-house opportunities for CPD including substantive training in Interpersonal Therapy and Open Dialogue Approach. C&V UHB is fortunate to have a number of services focussed on specific issues (for example, Eating Disorders service) and, for people in full-time posts, there may be opportunities to pursue CPD time in these services. We also have active links with our local doctoral training courses (clinical & counselling) and there are opportunities to provide supervision, research, consultancy and training.

Full clinical and management professional support and supervision will be available and we support and encourage research and audit opportunities.

Our CMHT psychologists work collaboratively across each locality to more flexibly meet the needs of service users- and this also allows for greater peer support, and more opportunities to develop specialist skills and interests. We are looking for people who can further add to our skills mix, and contribute to our active programme of service development, including group interventions and training for CMHT staff in psychosocial approaches.
