The William Morris Centre is a community psychological service, working with adults who exhibit complex emotional and relational problems associated with violence and/or sexual harm to others.

Oxleas Forensic Psychological Therapies department is an unusually large, long established and nationally well regarded specialty. Psychological therapists are highly valued within the wider directorate and trust and occupy a variety of service-wide leadership roles. Staff report the highest levels of job satisfaction in a Trust recognised for positive employee feedback. The Psychological Therapies team is warm and friendly, whilst also being dynamic and innovative. There is a focus on attachment, trauma and systemic approaches with expert supervision available for evidence-based therapy modalities such as MBT and EMDR. We offer a unique range of training opportunities and will invest in supporting you to extend your knowledge and expertise.
