Richmond is a great place to live and work and has been named as the “happiest place to live” in Great Britain (Rightmove’s “Happy at Home” Index, 2023).
We are a well-established, integrated and supportive team.All therapists have regular individual and peer group supervision, access to specialist outreach, and internal and external training.We welcome applications for full and part-time work, and there are plenty of opportunities to develop your clinical interests. Here’s what some of our current therapists like about working in our team:
“This team is by far the most supportive I have worked in”.
“The management have been very proactive with helping me find and develop a specialism”.
“It’s very easy to access supervision and outreach by specialists and everyone is actively keen to help”.
“We have a big band 6 team so there’s a lot of peer support”.
