KidsAid is a charity based in Northampton providing creative psychotherapies to children and adolescents and their families in Northamptonshire and surrounding areas. We work with both children and parents as needed to provide the best possible outcomes for the child.
Since the demand for therapeutic services across the UK is high, we are expanding the charity to cover Peterborough and surrounding areas.
Children are referred to us from social services, schools, children’s centres, GPs, and other organisations as well as by family members or self-referrals.
We provide therapy to clients who have experienced a range of issues such as trauma, abuse, bereavement, bullying, family breakdown, illness, domestic violence, or mental health problems.
Main Responsibilities:
* Provide high-quality assessments and face-to-face creative psychotherapy sessions to children, adolescents, and their families on an individual or group basis as required.
* Work with both adults and children, as we also offer directive parent work and adult therapies as part of our interventions.
Please note, this position is for a self-employed therapist to become part of our much-valued team. We welcome applications from Play Therapists, Art Psychotherapists, Creative Therapists, and Theraplay informed therapists.
