Summary
We are looking for a clinician with an understanding of the needs of young people and their families where there are significant mental health issues, contextual safeguarding and a trauma-informed approach to serious youth violence from a systemic and community and/or liberation psychology perspective. It is hoped that the work being developed will generate youth-led solutions that are co-produced and responsive to the needs of young people in Newham so that they can begin to lead debates about the issues impacting their lives. The post holder will therefore understand co-production with young people, have understanding and experience of working with the community, voluntary sector, youth services and /or activist groups who work with the most marginalised young people. The posts will form part of a well-established embedded CAMHS service within Newham, providing input to Newham Childrens Services, Education Settings; Youth Zones and Childrens Centres. The postholder will have a unique opportunity to work in partnership with and alongside other providers of support for young people throughout the borough. This provides a rich and creative backdrop for working in innovative, fresh and creative ways in order to meet the needs of the young people and their families and to promote understanding of mental health in the work of staff working across the Newham community.
