We are looking for a CBT therapist who can provide evidence-based therapies for individuals with complex mental health presentations, which include a history of trauma. The post will involve providing assessments and psychological interventions to individuals presenting with a wide range of complex mental health difficulties. There will also be opportunities to offer consultation to the MDT. The post holder will join a friendly and well-established team of CBT therapists, psychological therapists, psychologists, assistant psychologists, and mental health and wellbeing practitioners. The team also works closely with psychological professionals in the psychosis pathway and psychotherapists in the Personality and Complex Trauma Pathway. The post holder will be based at Swanswell Point in Coventry. The team of Psychological Therapists is dedicated to high quality, evidence-based service provision, including EMDR, Trauma-focused CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy. Staff from the Coventry service have close links with other psychological therapists working within the other locality Community Mental Health Teams. The service is also dedicated to taking part in research and has been one of the recruiting sites for the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) funded SPS study at Imperial College London.
37.5 hours (part-time hours can also be considered). An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated CBT Therapist to join our Coventry Community Mental Health Team. The service works with people with complex trauma and mental health presentations. Our CBT therapists, psychological therapists, and psychologists are embedded within the Community Mental Health Team, and we are therefore looking for someone who values and enjoys multi-disciplinary working and has a high level of understanding of the distinct contribution and added value that psychological approaches can make to the team.
