We have an amazing opportunity for a fully qualified and experienced Therapist/Systemic Psychotherapist to join our team.
We are dedicated to providing caring, supportive, recovery-focused treatment and we achieve this by working together with our clients and other professionals.
Our model of care is clinically led and has been put together by our doctors, nurses, psychologists, therapists, social workers, and other experts in this field.
We draw on a wide range of evidence to help inform how we treat and support every person we care for. A genuine person-centred approach sits at the heart of our model because no two individuals share exactly the same needs, hopes, and challenges.
We have our own dedicated Consultant-led Multi-Disciplinary Team who are experts in looking after and treating adults with severe, enduring, and complex mental health conditions.
What you’ll be working:
We can be flexible, but you will work a total of 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday.
What you’ll be doing:
* Undertake specific therapeutic work with patients in response to the clinical need, in a way which coheres with the overall treatment philosophy of the Unit.
* Maintain effective clinical records and casework notes in accordance with developing policy.
* Provide evidence-based mental health and systemic psychotherapy services across the hospital.
* Conduct systemic assessments, treatment, and consultation to client systems including children, young people, their families, carers, and professional networks.
* Work as a member of the multidisciplinary team (MDT) participating in clinical team meetings and other departmental meetings as necessary.
* Attend team meetings aimed at facilitating and enhancing team cooperation and performance.
* Provide coaching, training, mentoring, and management of junior staff and student placements.
* Ensure that all relevant codes of practice and regulations (MHA 1983 & Care Standards Act 2000, Children’s Act, Human Rights Act) are upheld.
What you’ll have:
As a Therapist/Systemic Psychotherapist, you will have undertaken a systemic therapy course and be registered as a therapist. You will be able to work autonomously within the context of a multi-disciplinary team approach and undertake specific clinical work with patients and their families in response to clinical needs, in a way which coheres with the overall treatment philosophy of the Unit. This is mainly working with in-patients, but may also be with outpatients and day patients.
* Hold current UKCP registration.
* Person-centred ethos, showing empathy and a desire to make a difference.
* Demonstrate initiative and creativity.
* Flexible and adaptable, well-organised, and able to manage time and workload effectively in line with the needs of the service.
Application ends on January 31, 2024.
