You will be responsible for the assessment and provision of CBT intervention in accordance with Service and University guidance and supervision based on a comprehensive formulation of the persons needs and the development of a relevant treatment plan based upon negotiated goals and relevant evidence-based interventions. You must also be aware of the BABCP code of standards and ethics and adhere to these. You will, in conjunction with the multi-disciplinary team, provide CBT interventions to support the person to meet their agreed goals and coordinate and/ or participate in the review of progress towards those goals, utilising recommended outcome measures, involving the service user and any identified carer throughout the intervention. Applicants would need either a core profession or be able to complete a KSA (submitted directly to University of Derby prior to starting the course) with the application.
