The University of Bedfordshire is looking to appoint an accredited (BACP, UKCP, BABCP, BPS or equivalent) counsellor to join the Student Counselling Team. You must hold a recognised qualification and a proven ability to manage risk.
The successful candidate will provide brief, solution-focused therapy as part of a wider team that supports student attainment and retention. You will be working with students with complex and wide-ranging issues.
You will carry an individual caseload and contribute to ongoing service development. You will be able to conduct face-to-face, telephone, and online video appointments.
