Crynodeb
This is a great opportunity to join the Drake Hall team as a senior psychologist, with the primary responsibilities of working alongside the prison SMT and leading the Drake Hall Women’s Estate Psychology Service (WEPS) team, whilst also maintaining a clinical caseload undertaking work aimed at reducing risk and increasing safety. The work of WEPS spans core forensic work as well as a broad range of safety-related work within women’s prisons, and as women transition back into the community. In addition to Parole and sentence planning related work, safety work is a key component of the role at any women’s prison. WEPS adopt a collaborative, strength-based approach, utilising psychological formulation and multiagency working to support the needs of both staff and women in custody. The team at Drake Hall currently consists of three forensic psychologists in training and a registered psychologist, however there is currently a gap for a site-based lead psychologist who would be welcomed by both WEPS and the local operational leadership team.
This post requires the post holder to act as a co-ordinating (clinical) supervisor for trainees undertaking recognised training routes. To be eligible, the post holder should have two years post registration experience at the point of taking up post. However, applications will be welcomed from psychologists who have a minimum of 18 months post registration experience; although they will not be able to formally take up the post until they have been registered for two years.
