Summary
Bedfordshire Talking Therapies (BTT) is an integrated Talking Therapies service providing a range of Talking Therapies approved interventions. The successful candidate will provide high intensity cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) with patients who have a range of complex Anxiety disorders and Depression related problems for which CBT is demonstrated to be clinically effective. As part of their caseload, the post holder will be expected to carry out assessments and offer CBT Groups as well as individual CBT treatment. The post holder will be required to work with people from different cultural backgrounds and ages, using interpreters when necessary and may work in various community settings, including GP surgeries and community venues. At present, the majority of clinical work is delivered remotely, with a small provision of face to face contacts being offered from our clinical bases in Bedford, Dunstable and Leighton Buzzard. The service seeks to provide ease of access for service users and to this end there will be a requirement to work flexible hours between 8am and 8 pm based on service requirements. Whilst this post is based in Bedfordshire, you may at times be required to provide cover and assistance to other East London Foundation Trust Talking Therapies teams, for example supervision by the medium of Teams, cross service trainings, etc. The post holder will be expected to work constructively and flexibly as part of the Bedfordshire Talking Therapies team and with colleagues in other East London Foundation Trust teams.
