Crynodeb
As a Principal Psychologist, you will join senior colleagues in delivering strong leadership in psychology provision in the team, as well as contributing to the Trust-wide development of our services. You will work principally with people with complex difficulties and their families, delivering recovery focussed interventions in the community. You will be expected to promote values that seek to support recovery in this client group and maximise the potential of individuals with the aim of reducing social exclusion, stigma and the potentially disabling effects of psychosis. As part of the Psychology team you will also be expected to support Clinical Psychology trainees, Clinical Associates in Psychology and other practitioners in their training and development. Research is also highly valued and we welcome people who support our research vision. It is essential that candidates have some pre or post qualification experience of working with people with psychosis; have a commitment to and interest in providing psychological interventions for psychosis as well as having good risk management skills. Experience of applying cognitive behavioural models to psychosis and recovery would be advantageous, and interests in ACT, Compassion Focused Therapy and EMDR would be welcome. You are required to hold a current professional registration with the HCPC as a practitioner psychologist (clinical or counselling), and it would be advantageous to be BABCP accredited or have passed a BABCP accredited CBT training course. A recognised qualification, current training or commitment to undertake training in CBT for psychosis is highly desirable. The ability to travel during the working day over a large geographical area is essential, as is the ability to work flexibly with the needs of the client group.
