A Vacancy at North London NHS Foundation Trust.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Clinical/Counselling Psychologist/ CBT Therapist in the Psychological Therapies Team within the Eating Disorders Service.
The Eating Disorders Service at St Ann’s Hospital in Haringey provides comprehensive care for patients 18 years old and above with a primary diagnosis of an eating disorder. It is one of the largest units in the country providing services to a catchment area that includes North Central London, North East London and parts of Essex. The service provides intensive inpatient treatment on Iris ward which is located in a newly built state of the art mental health building, Blossom Court. Our 14 bedded unit features ensuite bedrooms, more daylight, and views of nature to help reduce patient stress, anxiety, and pain as well as a sensory room. The service also includes our outpatient services, community liaison services, and a day programme located in a newly renovated purpose designed unit.
The Psychological Therapies team is responsible for providing assessment and treatment across all areas of the service including inpatient, outpatient, and the day program. The majority of the clinical work, both individual and group, uses a broadly cognitive behavioural framework, which is tailored to the presenting eating disorder and any co-morbid conditions, but also includes MANTRA and SSCM approaches.
As a successful candidate, you will be working predominantly in the Outpatient Service which consists of a multidisciplinary team of Psychiatry, Psychology, Community Liaison Nursing, Dieticians, Occupational Therapy, and Peer Support. You will be providing treatment for Outpatients as well as potentially supervising and managing Assistant Psychologists and Trainee Psychologists. Being part of the Psychological Therapies Team you will attend, the weekly Psychological Therapies meeting, and receive weekly supervision from a senior psychological therapist to support your work. You will also attend fortnightly CPD sessions arranged for the Psychological Therapies Team as well as a monthly Clinical Improvement Group where the whole service meets on a monthly basis and a fortnightly reflective practice group.
As a Psychological Therapies Team, we take pride in working together to maintain a supportive and friendly workplace where we can all deliver quality treatment for our patients as well as creating the welcoming atmosphere where we are happy to work.
North London NHS Foundation Trust (NLFT) is committed to improving mental health care across North London to deliver excellent services to our local people.
Our Five-Year Strategy:
1. We will provide consistently high-quality care closer to home.
2. With our partners in North London and each borough we will ensure equity of outcome for all
3. We will offer great places to work, providing staff with supportive environment to deliver outstanding care.
4. We will be more effective as an organisation by pioneering research, quality improvement and technology.
Why NLFT?
• We develop and retain our staff through leadership behaviours and managers programme and many more opportunities.
• We promote flexible working and support staff with a range of health and wellbeing initiatives.
• NHS Discounts, generous annual leave and NHS pension scheme
• Excellent internal staff network
The post holder will be aligned with our values:
• We Are Kind
• We Are Respectful
• We Work Together
• We Keep Things Simple
• We Empower
• We Are Proudly Diverse
In order to meet the needs of the Trust you may be required from time to time to work at different locations to your normal place of work. This may mean that you are required to work at any location that fall under Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey or Islington. The Trust reserves the right to require staff to work at such other places or locations as it considers reasonable and necessary on a temporary or permanent basis.
Please note - This role will specifically be aimed at assessment and intervention and will therefore largely involve conducting new patient assessments for the service, alongside holding a small clinical caseload.
